Although it also performs some functions in men, estrogen, the main female sex hormone, is involved in a myriad of processes, ...

Researchers at the CNIO show that oestrogens regulate gene expression by changing DNA supercoiling. Hormone-activated ...

Estrogens, the main female sex hormone, although they also perform some functions in men, are involved in a myriad of ...

New research from a team of genome scientists and DNA damage response experts breaks new ground in understanding the function of a protein currently limited in clinical trials for cancer treatments.

Researchers have discovered how cells activate a last-resort DNA repair system when severe damage strikes. When genetic ...

Biologists have used machine learning, a type of AI, to identify 'synthetic extreme' DNA sequences with specifically designed functions in gene activation. They tested 50 million DNA sequences and ...

Scientists at Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory (CSHL) have discovered how a protein long known to be an essential activator of DNA replication actually triggers this process in cells. The protein, called ...

Oestrogens, the main female sex hormone, although they also perform some functions in men, are involved in a myriad of processes, which is why the ...

Clinical application of targeted deep sequencing for predicting responsiveness to epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR)-tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs) in never-smoking lung adenocarcinomas (NSLA) ...

Epigenetics is often defined as the study of heritable changes that occur without a change in the actual DNA sequences. It has been shown that associated DNA proteins, called histones, are altered by ...
