In a study published in Cell, a research team led by ZHANG Yong'e and WANG Haoyi from the Institute of Zoology of the Chinese Academy of Sciences has characterized the diversity of DNA transposons and ...
The study reveals for the first time how the movement and duplication of segments of DNA known as transposons, is regulated. This prevents a genomic meltdown, and instead enables transposons to live ...
DNA methylation is prevalent in mammalian genomes and plays a central role in the epigenetic control of development. The mammalian DNA methylation machinery is thought to be composed of three DNA ...
The winters in Ithaca, NY, are long, snowy, and bitterly cold. The Cornell University students who endure them can be overheard discussing “Ithacation”—a mix of snow, hail, rain, and slush—as they ...
The first transposon that can determine survival in mammals has been identified, raising questions about evolution and fertility in the class. Transposons are DNA sequences initially incorporated into ...
Scientists study a molecular machine that moves jumping genes in DNA, paving the way for a new gene editing tool beyond CRISPR-Cas9. (Nanowerk News) More than a decade ago, scientists harnessed a ...
