When the structure in question is a gene, however, it is generally assumed that a selective advantage for a novel function will rarely coincide with a relaxation of selection on the ancestral ...

A generative AI-based technique can predict thousands of 3D genomic structures in just minutes, enabling researchers to more ...

Short-chain fatty acids (SCFAs) like propionate and butyrate are critical byproducts of dietary fiber digestion. These molecules do more than fuel the body—they directly influence gene expression and ...

A novel, freely available AI tool has cut the time it takes to determine chromatin structure from days to minutes. The 3D ...

Biology has yet to tap into the full benefits of computer simulations, but a new AI foundation model developed by a team of scientists including CMU's Eric Xing hopes to change that.

A research team has identified the core gene expression networks regulated by key proteins that fundamentally drive phenomena such as cancer development, metastasis, tissue differentiation from stem ...

Researchers have identified a unique mitochondrial process in CA2 neurons that supports learning, memory, and social recognition.

New research has investigated the mechanism by which bivalency functions to poise genes for expression during cell differentiation, providing insight into a long-standing paradigm in the regulation of ...

SRF is a transcription factor directly controlling the expression of at least 200–300 genes, regulating cell growth, proliferation, apoptosis, and motility, and is indispensable for organ ...
