Alternative splicing, a clever way a cell generates many different variations of messenger RNAs -- single-stranded RNAs involved in protein synthesis -- and proteins from the same stretch of DNA, ...
What eventually becomes a graduate student’s PhD thesis work is rarely the project they initially pursued. However, in rare cases like with recent PhD graduate Dr. April Lo from Dr. Alice Berger’s Lab ...
“This suggests that longer-lived species may have evolved molecular programs that optimize splicing for longevity, allowing ...
A collaborative study by scientists at the University of California, Riverside, and University of Southern California reports ...
When a gene is expressed, its DNA sequence is transcribed into a molecule known as RNA. Then the cell processes and edits ...
The enormous cellular diversity in the mammalian brain, which is highly prototypical and organized in a hierarchical manner, is dictated by cell-type–specific gene-regulatory programs at the molecular ...
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 ...
A new study shows that RNA splicing, not just gene expression, holds powerful clues to why some mammals live far longer than ...
Type-II diabetes is a chronic disease caused by insulin resistance due to pancreatic β-cell dysfunction. Mutations in a single gene, HNF1A, which codes for the transcription factor hepatocyte nuclear ...
Elana Thieme and Mark Mendoza, fourth-year graduate students in the Molecular and Cell Biology (MCB) PhD Program jointly ...
