UCLA researchers use lipid nanoparticles to insert full CFTR gene into airway cells, restoring function and opening new avenues for CF therapy.

Scientists have identified how specific genetic changes function in cells to influence disease risk and other human health ...

Scientists have now created an encyclopedia of gene function for all known human genes that code for protein. This data uses the most current and reliable data, and it has also been released on a ...

Scientists have uncovered a powerful genetic switch that helps some of the body’s most important immune cells grow up properly and keep our organs healthy. The switch, called MafB, guides immature ...

Study argues to move beyond ‘reading genes’ — focus on conserved neural-development networks in humans to improve early ...

Gene-set analysis seeks to identify the biological mechanisms underlying groups of genes with shared functions. Large language models (LLMs) have shown promise in generating functional descriptions ...

A single genetic “switch” may be the secret to how the body’s cleanup crew grows up and keeps our organs running smoothly.

Randomized trials of platelet function and genetic testing to guide antiplatelet decisions following PCI have produced notoriously mixed results: now, an updated consensus document aims to fill some ...

The genetic network of BTB zinc finger transcription factors and Eip93F is crucial for Kenyon cell identity regulation and neuronal function acquisition in the construction of Drosophila mushroom ...

A doctor who had a genetic condition that prevents teeth from forming searched for the DNA mutation that had affected his ...

Plants are fast-tracking their own evolution by "plugging in" genetic code stolen from their neighbors, according to new ...

CRISPR gene drives bias inheritance in pests, advancing population-level control while raising questions about resistance and ...
