Single cell gene expression studies often rely on single-cell RNA sequencing (scRNA-seq) alone. While scRNA-seq reveals which genes are turned on, it does not capture protein expression or changes to ...

DNA methylation is a key epigenome component that helps dictate how genes are expressed, contributing to normal cell and tissue differentiation during development, as well as the process of biological ...

For decades, synthetic biologists have been developing gene circuits that can be transferred into cells for applications such ...

Conventional studies on stem cell fates are primarily focused on transcription factors, with the limited consideration for 3D ...

Thelma Escobar presented at the JHU Department of Biology’s Seminar Series on Thursday, September 25th, 2025. She discussed ...

Scientists at City of Hope have uncovered a gene called SMOC1 that plays a surprising role in the development of type 2 ...

Single-cell analyses revealed molecular profiles that can distinguish PTSD from depression, potentially leading to better drugs for this psychiatric disorder. To test this hypothesis, Girgenti and his ...

Using advanced techniques in biophysical chemistry, a team led by Meredith Jackrel, an associate professor of chemistry, has ...

A gene called SDR42E1 has been identified as a key player in how our bodies absorb and process vitamin D. Researchers found that disabling this gene in colorectal cancer cells not only crippled their ...
