What do your genes have to do with growing old? Quite a lot. But is it due to the actual DNA, or the way those genes are expressed? KPBS sci-tech reporter Thomas Fudge has more on new research that ...

Much of the phenotypic variation that is observed within and between species is the result of differences in gene regulation: specifically when, where and how much the genes are expressed. Given the ...

It's a common storytelling trope: the stubborn foe who is eventually revealed to be a much-needed friend.Biology has its own version. Cornell ...

In December 2025, Castle Biosciences reported Nature Communications data from the largest prospective, multicenter uveal melanoma study showing that combining its DecisionDx-UM test with PRAME gene ...

Gene regulation is the process by which cells control the expression of their genes, determining when, where, and to what extent each gene is expressed. It is a fundamental mechanism that allows cells ...

Epigenetics is the study of various heritable alterations that control gene expression without changing the DNA sequence. 1 The name epigenetics comes from the Greek prefix “epi”, which means on top ...

Genetics is the study of genes and how they influence characteristics and health. Through a variety of technological methods, environmental factors, and lifestyle choices, it is possible to alter some ...

The Global Gene Expression Market is estimated to be valued at USD 16.56 Bn in 2025 and is expected to reach USD 23.61 Bn by 2032, exhibiting a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 5.2% from 2025 to ...

Study finds CRISPR/Cas gene editing causes “chromatin fatigue” – another surprise mechanism by which it can produce unwanted ...

Genes encode proteins and proteins dictate cell function. Therefore, the thousands of genes expressed in a particular cell determine what that cell can do. Moreover, each step in the flow of ...
