Researchers have discovered that DNA and RNA epigenetics form a complementary system that precisely regulates gene activity, ...

This is where DNA and RNA epigenetics comes in: a series of mechanisms that act as "markers" on genes, to control their ...

The expression of genes has to be carefully regulated in cells; active genes give cells their identity and ability to function... | Cell And Molecular Biology ...

Our genes contain all the instructions our body needs to function, but their expression must be finely regulated to guarantee ...

We have all been told to avoid direct sunlight between 12 noon and 3 p.m., seek out shade and put on sunscreen and a hat.

Study reveals UV radiation damages RNA, not DNA, triggering skin inflammation and cell death through ribotoxic stress response.

Researchers led by François Fuks - Laboratory of Cancer Epigenetics, ULB Faculty of Medicine, ULB-Cancer Research Center and Jules Bordet Institute, H.U.B. - have discovered a new mechanism which ...

Our genes contain all the instructions our body needs to function, but their expression must be finely regulated to guarantee ...

The molecule that reads the genetic data contained in DNA is called RNA. Researchers at the University of California, Irvine have found a method to tag RNA with a glowing bioluminescent molecule, ...

RNA in cells performs an astounding number of functions. Messenger RNA carries the sequences of active genes to cellular machinery that turns it into proteins. And transfer RNA molecules are an ...

From a genetic perspective, it is the worst-case scenario for a bacterium: during transcription, freshly created RNA adheres to its DNA template to form a three-stranded structure called an R-loop.
