Not just any sacrifice would appease its capricious tastes, however. Some days, it demanded the flesh of storied warriors.

Even before gene splicing became routine, a germ agent could be perfected in a few years, while a vaccine often took a decade to make and win approval. More than a decade after the Gulf War ...

Scientists reveal how cancer cells manipulate RNA splicing, increasing tumor growth. A new study introduces antisense ...

Plants survive cold by adjusting at cellular level. Scientists discovered that the PORCUPINE protein helps plants adapt to ...

Cells have a natural editing system that allows them to rearrange genetic instructions to create different proteins from the ...

View Full Profile. Learn about our Editorial Policies. Stanford University biochemist and developmental biologist Dale Kaiser, whose work provided the conceptual basis for gene editing, died of ...

A study reveals how cancer disrupts RNA splicing and presents a potential therapy using antisense oligonucleotides to target ...

In a study published in mBio, a research team identified alternative splicing—the selective inclusion or excision of introns in a gene—as a contributor to filament formation in fever-like temperatures ...

RNA splicing is a cellular process that is critical for gene expression. After genes are copied from DNA into messenger RNA, portions of the RNA that don't code for proteins, called introns ...

A pioneering study has uncovered the sophisticated tactics root-knot nematodes use to manipulate the genetic machinery of ...

Alternative splicing is crucial for eukaryotic gene expression and influences protein function and regulation, with mis-splicing linked to numerous diseases. In this webinar, Dr. Megan L Noonan will ...

RNA sequencing has emerged as a powerful supplement to DNA sequencing for Mendelian disease diagnosis, but clinical ...
