In biology classrooms, we often learn that genes are transcribed into mRNA, which is then translated into proteins—a tidy, linear process. But gene expression in living cells is far more intricate, ...

Biologists have discovered a new type of RNA-splicing regulation that helps to determine which protein-coding exons will be included in messenger RNA transcripts. RNA splicing is a cellular process ...

On Wednesday afternoon, Haifan Lin, the director of the Yale Stem Cell Center, discussed his innovative research findings in stem cell gene expression and regulation at Brown’s 2025 Mac V. Edds ...

Google DeepMind has launched AlphaGenome, a new AI tool that can analyse up to one million DNA letters at once to identify genetic drivers of disease. The system predicts how mutations affect gene ...

A large genetic screen has revealed how stem cells transform into brain cells, exposing hundreds of genes that make this process possible. Among the discoveries is PEDS1, a gene now linked to a ...

Allergic conjunctivitis is one of the most common eye conditions. A new large-scale genetic study shows that susceptibility to the disease is strongly linked to genes that regulate inflammation and ...
