A genomic atlas of Nematostella vectensis reveals how primitive animals created multiple cell types millions of years ago, ...

All the cells in an organism have the exact same genetic sequence. What differs across cell types is their epigenetics-meticulously placed chemical tags that influence which genes are expressed in ...

Big-picture patterns of DNA packaging, gene activation and mutations could hold the information needed to develop a blood-based biopsy for small cell lung cancer patients, according to new work ...

*Important notice: bioRxiv publishes preliminary scientific reports that are not peer-reviewed and, therefore, should not be regarded as conclusive, guide clinical practice/health-related behavior, or ...

Epigenetics is a rapidly growing field of study that focuses on the heritable changes in gene expression that occur without alterations to the underlying DNA sequence. These changes are caused by ...

Jewell’s research focuses on epigenetics, the biological mechanisms that regulate how genes are expressed without changing ...

A study in Biological Psychiatry has identified an epigenetic signature in newborns for genetic susceptibility to schizophrenia, revealing that an increased genetic risk of schizophrenia and other ...
