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

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 ...

Diabetes. 2006;55(12):3201-3213. The greatly diverged chicken and zebrafish insulin promoters lack mammalian A boxes; however, several TAAT motifs are present. The chicken has two at –359 and ...

Northwestern Medicine investigators have discovered a novel mechanism that recognizes and eliminates "bad" transcriptional ...

The mammalian OGT gene is located on the X chromosome, and it is known to be essential for early development. However, so far it has not been possible to clarify whether its presence or its ...

New York, USA, 22 January 2025. Today, OGT announces the North American launch of its new next-generation sequencing (NGS) SureSeq™ Myeloid MRD Panel, which provides a flexible NGS workflow for the ...

The transcription of a gene is controlled by a so-called promoter region, which is located directly before the start of the gene. More detailed investigations in recent years have indicated that ...

These could be signs that you have an inherited intolerance to alcohol — and a mutated gene could be the culprit, according to Cleveland Clinic. This gene mutation hampers the body’s ability ...

Mikhail ‘Wayne’ Thompson, a 36 year-old Jamaican-born Canadian dancehall promoter, will never see the face of his unborn child as he was brutally gunned down in the parking lot of a rented ...
