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 ...

All the cells in an organism have the exact same genetic sequence. What differs across cell types is their epigenetics—meticulously placed chemical tags that influence which genes are expressed in ...

Molecular and morphological profiles of developing neurons in vitro uncover the cellular dynamics of human neurodevelopment and related disease.

Disease development is often shaped by genetics, with how much or how little a gene is expressed influencing disease risk.

Dialing up gene expression Synthetic gene circuits are engineered to include not only the gene of interest, but also a promoter region. At this site, transcription factors and other regulators can ...
