You may have heard of the fantastic-sounding "dark side of the genome." This poorly studied fraction of DNA, known as ...

A key protein network that keeps cells safe from the dangerous effects of transposable elements has been uncovered.

Researchers say findings suggest it may be possible to stop cancer growth using approaches such as restraining TE activity in cancer cells.

Scientists have long been curious about a mysterious part of our DNA called heterochromatin, often called the “dark side of the genome.” This area makes up about half of our genetic material, yet it ...

Disruption of the enzyme O-GlcNAc transferase in mouse embryonic stem cells unleashes the activity of TET enzymes, which cause genome-wide decreases in DNA methylation and increases in DNA ...
