In some cases, enhancer-promoter interactions only happened when the gene was expressed, so the physical proximity between the two directly affected gene expression. This is known as an ...

DNA sequences that regulate expression of the insulin gene are located within a region spanning ~400 bp that flank the transcription start site. This region, the insulin promoter, contains a ...

Scientists at UC San Diego find that gene expression is linked to gene mutations and may be caused by them. That could make ...

New research adds to our understanding of the function of the human genome. An international team of researchers has made ...

Biology has yet to tap into the full benefits of computer simulations, but a new AI foundation model developed by a team of scientists including CMU's Eric Xing hopes to change that.

A research team has identified the core gene expression networks regulated by key proteins that fundamentally drive phenomena such as cancer development, metastasis, tissue differentiation from stem ...

Fiber digestion produces short-chain fatty acids like propionate and butyrate, which directly alter gene expression with anti-cancer effects, according to new research.

An international team of researchers has taken an important step toward understanding how gene expression is controlled ...

The greatly diverged chicken and zebrafish insulin promoters lack mammalian A boxes ... regulatory element may be influential in insulin expression, perhaps playing a role in energy homeostasis.
