DNA methylation in bacteria, primarily involving the addition of methyl groups to adenine or cytosine residues, constitutes a pivotal epigenetic mechanism that modulates gene expression without ...

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 ...

Livestock breeders could soon have more tools to improve the health and quality of their animals, thanks to a recent study ...

A research team, consisting of Professor Jongmin Kim, PhD candidates Jeongwon Kim, Minchae Seo, and Yelin Lim from the Department of Life Sciences at POSTECH, has developed an RNA-based sensor ...

Inside every cell, thousands of molecular signals collide, overlap, and compensate, obscuring the true drivers of gene expression. Scientists have now developed a way to silence that cellular noise, ...

The peer-reviewed research article in Brain Medicine titled "Exercise induces changes in tryptophan metabolism by gut microbes associated with hippocampal function in adult rats," is freely available ...
