What if a cup of coffee could help treat cancer? Researchers at the Texas A&M Health Institute of Biosciences and Technology ...

Researchers developed a generative AI model that designs synthetic cis-regulatory elements controlling gene activity in ...

The ability to control gene expression across a wide range is crucial for many fields, including bioengineering, disease ...

Scientists at the MRC Laboratory of Medical Sciences (LMS) have discovered a DNA-based “dimmer switch” that regulates the activity of a critical developmental gene, Cdx2. This work could pave the way ...

To help achieve more precise control of gene therapy, engineers have designed a new control circuit that can keep gene expression levels within a target range. The method could be used to deliver ...

The expression of genes has to be carefully regulated in cells; active genes give cells their identity and ability to function. Epigenetic features are just one way that cells control gene expression, ...

A recent study marks the first reported instance of generative AI designing synthetic molecules that can successfully control gene expression in healthy mammalian cells. As a proof-of-concept, the ...

Long non-coding RNAs (lncRNA) are a type of RNA molecule that do not carry instructions to make proteins. Instead, they influence how other genes are expressed. There are tens of thousands of lncRNAs ...

Inflammation has to fight pathogens fast—but it can't get out of control. Researchers at the German Cancer Research Center ...

CRISPR-Cas9 has been widely adapted for use in transcriptional modulation and epigenetic engineering with deactivated Cas9 (dCas9) systems to enable CRISPR interference (CRISPRi) and CRISPR activation ...
