Also, eukaryotic gene expression is usually regulated by a combination of several regulatory proteins acting together, which allows for greater flexibility in the control of gene expression.

Studying the control of gene expression is a growing area of research at the moment, likely owing to its fundamental importance to many biological processes.

As an example of such structures, which play an important role in the initiation of translation and thus in the regulation of gene expression, the Bonn researchers have now investigated internal ...

Researchers developed an RNA-based switch, the pA regulator system, to control gene expression in mammalian cells by modulating synthetic polyA signal cleavage, offering a novel approach for gene ...

Epigenetics and Heritable Control of Gene Expression The epigenome regulates nearly every process in the human body. By studying epigenetics, scientists have revealed some secrets to aging, cancer, ...

The stochasticity of gene expression presents significant challenges to the modeling of genetic networks. A two-state model describing promoter switching, transcription, and messenger RNA (mRNA) decay ...

Other major regulators of gene expression—including proteins involved in stress responses, stem cell maintenance and cancer progression—also rely on beta-catenin to link up with BAF.

But its location and effect on gene expression reflect a new form of epitranscriptome control and suggest an even larger cellular “control panel.” “The discovery of m1A is extremely important, not ...

The (when stretched) two-meter-long DNA molecule in each human cell is continuously being unpacked and packed again to enable the expression of genetic information.

Most people recognize Alzheimer's from its devastating symptoms such as memory loss, while new drugs target pathological aspects of disease manifestations, such as plaques of amyloid proteins. Now a ...
