Researchers explain the importance of identifying and understanding how differences between tissues and cells alter gene expression without changing the underlying genetic code. A recent publication ...
The glioma amplified sequence 41 (GAS41) was previously isolated by microdissection mediated cDNA capture from the glioblastoma multiforme cell line TX3868 and shown to be frequently amplified in ...
The Plant Cell, Vol. 6, No. 12 (Dec., 1994), pp. 1877-1887 (11 pages) The homeobox of the knotted1 (kn1) gene was used to isolate 12 related sequences in maize. The homeodomains encoded by the ...
Epigenetics is a rapidly growing field of study that focuses on the heritable changes in gene expression that occur without alterations to the underlying DNA sequence. These changes are caused by ...
In numerous tissues and genes, the researchers found lopsided ratios in two parts of mRNA transcripts of genes, one of which carries the code for a protein and one that doesn't. They suspect some of ...
Premise of research. The transition from herbaceous annual to woody perennial has occurred numerous times during angiosperm evolution, but the suite of genetic changes that accompanies this life ...
