A new study helps explain the role of genetic variation in shaping gene regulation in the Indonesian archipelago, one of the most diverse regions in the world. “This study is the only study of ...

Frontotemporal dementia (FTD) often strikes our most human traits, such as the ability to speak and to interact on social and emotional levels. Now, research led by Lorenzo Pasquini and William Seeley ...

The Nobel Prize for Physiology or Medicine has been awarded to Victor Ambros ( University of Massachusetts Medical School) ...

Researchers in the U.K. have succeeded in reverse engineering the defective cryptic splicing that drives amyotrophic lateral ...

Alternative splicing is a genetic process where different segments of genes are removed, and the remaining pieces are joined together during transcription to messenger RNA (mRNA). This mechanism ...

Most runners know that in order to train hard and be able to keep going, run after run, you need to have a diet that’s reasonably high in protein. Why? To help muscles to repair, recover and grow.

This important paper addresses the process by which cryptic splice sites that occur randomly in exons are ignored by the splicing machinery. Integrating state-of- the-art genome-wide approaches such ...

In contrast, peptides are the starting point for bottom-up MS, which is a core technology in proteomics. Here, proteins are ...
