“Expression tells us what cells do, but regulatory DNA tells us where they come from, how they develop, and which germ layer ...

A new CRISPR approach can control genes without cutting DNA, opening a safer path for treating genetic diseases. A newly ...

The National Medical Commission (NMC) has released the official NEET UG 2026 syllabus, outlining the topics to be covered in ...

Deep in coastal mangroves and even inside our own mouths, biologists are finding that DNA does not always sit in a simple ...

Humans have it. So does Drosophila. But not yeast. That "it" is a small pause at the start of gene activity—a brief molecular halt that may have helped life evolve from simple cells to complex animals ...

Research links variations in the gene GRIN2A to a higher risk of developing schizophrenia and other forms of mental illness. The GRIN2A gene regulates communication between neurons by producing the ...

With a new study in the journal Cell, researchers at Stanford University and Stockholm University have contributed to increased knowledge about gene regulation in human cells. How genes are turned on ...

This important work develops a new protocol to experimentally perturb target genes across a quantitative range of expression levels in cell lines. The evidence supporting their new perturbation ...

GOP Representative Marjorie Taylor Greene’s resignation from Congress in January will raise the possibility that Republicans could lose their razor-thin majority next year. Newsweek reached out to the ...

What if you could flip a genetic switch to silence a gene, then turn it back on with a simple drug? For researchers, gene-switch tools offer that kind of control—and a new system called Cyclone may ...

The FDA is said to be making a U-turn on uniQure’s one-time gene therapy candidate for Huntington’s disease despite the treatment being hailed as a game changer. The FDA no longer agrees that data ...
