New method developed by UTSW researchers removes mysterious organelles from stem cells and embryos to uncover their roles.

Apart from carrying the information to encode proteins in, RNA molecules can adopt intricate 2D and 3D structures. Specifically, the same RNA molecule can switch between ON and OFF structures, ...

TripletDGC, an open-source GitHub toolkit, leverages single-cell RNA-seq to map nearly 10,000 disease-associated genes to their most impacted cell types—creating over 54,000 gene-disease-cell links to ...

Because they rely on hosts for a majority of functions, viruses aren’t considered alive. But entities like this one complicate matters.

Among members of the Richardson family who carry a mutation in the PSEN1 gene, the average age when symptoms start is 39.

This valuable work used molecular biology, cell biology, and genetic approaches to unravel individual genes and potential pathways that contribute to paternal mitochondrial inheritance using C.

The genes for both classes of proteins were found across the huge array of life the team studied. But the genes were much more similar between archaea and eukaryotes than between bacteria and the ...

An experimental treatment called VERVE-102 lowers the amount of "bad" cholesterol in the blood of people with specific cholesterol-raising conditions.
