Almost 1,500 genes have been implicated in intellectual disabilities; yet for most people with such disabilities, genetic causes remain unknown. Perhaps this is in part because geneticists have been ...
The common wisdom is that each gene codes for one protein. Someone studying whether a patient has a mutation or version of a gene that contributes to their disease will therefore look for mutations ...
Cells are defined by the genes they express. In human cells, there are thousands of different protein coding genes, and the expression of those genes is carefully orchestrated and controlled by a ...
The human genome may contain more protein-coding genes than prior analyses suggested. A study published last month (May 29) on BioRxiv provides an expanded database of approximately 5,000 novel ...
Non-coding DNA is essential for both humans and trypanosomes, despite the large evolutionary divergence between these two species.
Researchers have created the most comprehensive map to date of DNA elements that regulate gene activity, nearly tripling the ...
Researchers discover a unique genetic code in Antarctic archaea that encodes a rare amino acid, potentially advancing protein ...
