The study shows that a long non-coding RNA called CISTR-ACT acts as a master regulator of cell size, influencing how large or ...
What keeps our cells the right size? Scientists have long puzzled over this fundamental question, since cells that are too ...
SickKids researchers discovered that a long non-coding RNA, CISTR-ACT, directly regulates cell size. Using gene-editing tools ...
What keeps our cells the right size? Scientists have long puzzled over this fundamental question, since cells that are too large or too small are ...
For decades, scientists have been puzzled by large portions of the human genome labeled as “junk” DNA, sequences that seemingly serve no purpose. Yet, recent studies suggest these cryptic sequences ...
Only around two percent of the human genome codes for proteins, and while those proteins carry out many important functions of the cell, the rest of the genome cannot be ignored. However, for decades ...
Image Caption: Technologies evolved related to the Human Genome Project. Genes & Diseases publishes rigorously peer-reviewed and high quality original articles and authoritative reviews that focus on ...
Guillaume Andrey, UNIGE I've been interested in the genetic mechanisms of development since the beginning of my career.
New research published in Nature Communications has linked a normal cellular process to an accumulation of DNA mutations in cancer and identified cancer-driving mutations in an underexplored part of ...
