Genetic variation also plays a major role. It doesn’t encode trauma itself, but it shapes traits such as sensitivity to ...

Eggs and embryos from people with polycystic ovary syndrome have altered patterns of so-called epigenetic tags, which could ...

Here’s the genome of my son.’ And that’s where we paused,” said de Pape. “Because your DNA, we say, is the blueprint to who you are. In your lifetime you will have one highly identifiable piece of ...

The herpesvirus can manipulate our DNA with far more precision than previously thought. The virus condenses and changes the shape of our genetic material to hijack the host genes needed for ...

Your DNA is continually damaged by sources both inside and outside your body. One especially severe form of damage called a double-strand break invol ...

Their findings, published in the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, pave the way for solid-state, label-free DNA sequencing technologies with implications for precision medicine.

Background: GP-2250 is a novel antineoplastic agent demonstrating effective activity on preclinical pancreatic cancer models alone or in combination with gemcitabine, and inhibits c-MYC, NFκB, and ...

Each fluorescently labeled binder binds and releases 1 ... the payoff will be the ease of amplifying and reading out the resulting DNA molecule—which would make Encodia’s technology easy ...

DNA Polymerase enzyme syntheses labeled educational vector illustration. Image Credit: VectorMine / Shutterstock. Every time a cell divides, DNA polymerase is required to help duplicate the cell ...

Researchers at UNC have discovered that a common lab molecule, used to label DNA, can trigger a runaway process that eventually leads to cell death. But the team says this could have a positive ...

Until now, the problem was that fluorescent dyes didn’t work well on DNA or in processed clinical cancer samples. So, Liu and her team formulated a new label called Hoechst-Cy5 by combining the ...

Researchers have developed a new fluorescent label that gives a clearer picture of how DNA architecture is disrupted in cancer cells. The findings could improve cancer diagnoses for patients and ...
