Researchers have discovered that DNA and RNA epigenetics form a complementary system that precisely regulates gene activity, ...

Our genes contain all the instructions our body needs to function, but their expression must be finely regulated to guarantee ...

This is where DNA and RNA epigenetics comes in: a series of mechanisms that act as "markers" on genes, to control their ...

DNA transcription is the vital first step needed for switching on our genes. For a gene to be switched on, it must be acted ...

This triple-layered technique allowed the researchers to simultaneously capture the location of DNA, RNA and specific proteins ... interacting during bursts of activity, and where the proteins ...

"Sunburn damages the DNA, leading to cell death and inflammation. So the textbooks say. But in this study we were surprised to learn that this is a result of damage to the RNA, not the DNA that ...

Researchers at the University of Copenhagen and NTU Singapore have discovered that RNA damage, not DNA damage, is the real trigger for the acute effec ...
