Could a gene regulatory network in gut microbes have evolved its elaborate and tightly regulated molecular machinery only to pump out antibiotics indiscriminately? Researchers from the Institute of ...

Researchers at the Nora Eccles Harrison Cardiovascular Research and Training Institute, University of Utah, and the University of Utah School of Medicine, have demonstrated that a gene therapy can ...

Thanks to increasingly efficient and affordable gene sequencing technologies, we can now chart our genetic blueprint in unprecedented detail. But what does each gene do? Of the roughly 20,000 genes ...

Researchers have developed synthetic genes that function like the genes in living cells. The artificial genes can build intracellular structures through a cascading sequence that builds ...

“We know the genes, but not their functions.” To resolve this long-standing bottleneck in microbial research, a joint research team has proposed a cutting-edge research strategy that leverages ...

Novel approach to engineering complex microbial traits generates tens of millions of gene combinations, enabling gain-of-function traits beyond those observed from individual genes SAN DIEGO, April 8, ...

Revolutions in gene therapy are rapidly changing the landscape of modern medicine. Revolutions in gene therapy are rapidly changing the landscape of modern medicine, forcing society and science alike ...

Did humans lose their sense of smell? A study on the Orang Asli people reveals that hunter-gatherers maintain ancestral smell ...
