Neuronal specification, expansion and differentiation are tightly regulated by the concerted actions of transcription and chromatin modifying factors that are recruited to regulatory elements in the ...

In their upcoming G&D paper, Dr. Robert Tjian (UC Berkeley) and colleagues reveal how histone gene expression is differentially regulated during Drosophila development. The researchers demonstrate ...

Plant bioengineering—in which plant genes are modified to include desirable characteristics—is the key to solutions for problems concerning crop resilience and food security. Elements like gene ...

Expert Rev Mol Diagn. 2012;12(4):371-382. Most tumor-related gene miRNAs can have normal regulatory function, but are dysregulated in cancer progression. In the latest edition of the miRBase miRNA ...

I read with interest Eugene Russo's article on regulated gene therapy.1 For the past six years, I have been developing a system to target genes to specific tissues and regulate their expression using ...

Locations of the cis-regulatory elements (CREs) and core promoter motifs CCAAT, Y patch, TATA-box, and TSS/Inr within dicot and monocot promoters. Researchers explain how new sequencing methods can ...
