Bicuspid aortic valve (BAV) is a common congenital heart defect where the aortic valve has two leaflets (cusps) instead of ...

New findings from Karolinska Institutet reveal how the gene HNRNPU coordinates several fundamental molecular processes during ...

The first study on deuterium-depleted water (DDW) concluded that a higher D/H ratio inside cells can trigger cell division. This was supported by lab experiments showing that lowering deuterium levels ...

A duplicated gene evolved into a switch that determines sex in frogs, revealing how evolution can safely reshape critical ...

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 ...

Researchers at the UC Davis College of Biological Sciences have discovered that a little-known protein called ATF7IP2 helps to inactivate the X and Y chromosomes during cell divisions that lead to ...

Prostrate growth habit is a highly desirable plant architecture trait that enhances lodging resistance, landscape coverage, and ornamental value.

This study reveals that enhancing the activity of a conserved “housekeeping” gene can significantly elevate fruit nutritional and sensory traits. By increasing the expression of a tRNA-associated gene ...
