Two species of worms have retained remarkably similar patterns in the way they switch their genes on and off despite having ...

Even after 20 million years of evolutionary separation, two tiny worm species show astonishingly similar patterns in how they ...

Researchers have studied gene expression dynamics during metamorphosis in two species of flies. Published in the Genome ...

GeneCentric Therapeutics has secured $8m in new funding to accelerate the development of its RNA-based liquid biopsy platform ...

The switch from fetal γ-globin to adult β-globin is controlled by BCL11A. Genetic manipulation of BCL11A improves disease outcomes by turning γ-globin expression back on to compensate for ...

The existence of ant colonies was a mystery even to the famous naturalist Charles Darwin. How could evolution produce workers ...

A change to a single gene in the bacterium Yersinia pestis has enabled one of the world’s most notorious pathogens to survive for centuries.

This valuable study identifies asymmetric dimethylarginine (ADMA) histones as potential determinants of the initial genomic binding of Rhino, a Drosophila-specific chromatin protein essential for ...

A team of researchers is tapping into the ocean’s vast body of free-floating environmental DNA to catch blooms before they ...

The duration of expression of the gene Cdx2 is tightly regulated by a newly identified DNA sequence element called an “attenuator.” ...
