Here, Professor Marie-Laure Yaspo, Chief Scientific Officer at Alacris Theranostics, discusses her work on molecular tumour profiling, and how MGI’s technology ... to change in gene expression.

Sep. 16, 2024 — CREME is a virtual laboratory that allows scientists to simulate specific decreases in gene activity. It offers a powerful new tool for identifying and understanding important ...

Inheriting two copies of the unpleasant taste gene provides a "ruin-your-day level of bitterness" to foods like broccoli and sprouts, they say. It could explain why some people find it difficult ...

Scientists are exploring how gene expression patterns and their timing regulate cell differentiation. Today, researchers understand that the specialized, differentiated cell types of the adult ...

Being one of the sequencers with the highest speed among mid-low throughput, DNBSEQ-G99 is advanced depending on MGI’s core DNBSEQ sequencing technology, backed by innovations in biochemistry ...

How Is Gene Expression Regulated? The amounts and types of mRNA molecules in a cell reflect the function of that cell. In fact, thousands of transcripts are produced every second in every cell.

Oct. 28, 2024 — Using state-of-the-art technology, researchers have identified several specific steps needed for CRISPR to become active and perform its gene editing function. These preclinical ...

After that, the next step in CRISPR gene editing is usually to alter that piece of DNA. However, CRISPR has also been adapted to do other things too, such as turning genes on or off without ...

Gene therapy and gene editing are on the cutting edge of modern biotechnology. Gene therapies are used to correct genetic abnormalities by introducing genetic material at a cellular level and can ...

Current scientific techniques are not yet safe or effective enough to be used to create gene-edited babies, an international committee says. The technology could one day prevent parents from ...

Gene Park is a reporter for The Washington Post, covering video games and gaming culture. He joined The Post in 2015 as audience editor, and is a former reporter in the West Coast and Pacific region.

The great scientist strays into speculation in The Genetic Book of the Dead, his latest defence of his “selfish gene” theory of evolution. By Tim Flannery Richard Dawkins is without doubt the most ...
