Johns Hopkins researchers have developed a powerful new AI tool called Splam that can identify where splicing occurs in genes—an advance that could help scientists analyze genetic data with greater ...

PepGen’s lead candidate for myotonic dystrophy type 1 barely beat the placebo in a Phase 2 trial in terms of fixing incorrect ...

A new study from the Italian Institute of Technology (IIT), in collaboration with Uppsala University (Sweden) and AstraZeneca ...

Alternative splicing is a genetic process where different segments of genes are removed, and the remaining pieces are joined together during transcription to messenger RNA (mRNA). This mechanism ...

Tuberculosis (TB) remains one of the world's most serious public health threats, with approximately one-quarter of the global ...

A wave of AI foundation models built on plant DNA sequences is giving researchers new tools to annotate genomes, predict gene ...

The protein complex cohesin is fundamental to the cell division process, as it holds sister chromatids tightly together in a ringlike structure before a cell physically splits. But now researchers at ...

Scientists at the Hospital for Sick Children (SickKids) and the University of Las Vegas Nevada (UNLV) have uncovered a genetic link between autism spectrum disorder (ASD) and a rare genetic condition ...

I was just watching a documentary on the science channel here, and one of the things they talked about was two types of fly, both of whom had something called the paintbrush gene, which in one of them ...

RNA splicing is a cellular process that is critical for gene expression. After genes are copied from DNA into messenger RNA, portions of the RNA that don't code for proteins, called introns, are cut ...
