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 ...

“This is the first detailed study of how and where ORC regulates epigenetics and gene expression in human cells,” said Anindya Dutta, Ph.D., leader of the study and chair of the University of Alabama ...

Researchers at Karolinska Institutet in Sweden and Kyoto University in Japan have identified new subgroups of the blood ...

Diet can leave lasting epigenetic marks that reshape gene expression, metabolic pathways, and disease susceptibility across the lifespan. These diet-driven molecular changes may create a form of ...

A recent review by Prof. Zhu Bing and Associate Professor Xiong Jun from the Institute of Biophysics of the Chinese Academy of Sciences reveals how epigenetic regulation not only maintains gene ...

The expression of genes has to be carefully regulated in cells; active genes give cells their identity and ability to function. Epigenetic features are just one way that cells control gene expression, ...

The study reveals that prenatal fructose exposure directly alters neural stem cells (NSCs), the foundational master cells ...

Origin-recognition complex (ORC) plays an unexpectedly broad role in the regulation of human cell gene expression, according to a study in the journal Cell Reports. "This is the first detailed study ...

Salk Institute researchers find new mode of epigenetic targeting, showing for the first time that genetic sequences can direct new DNA methylation patterns in plants LA JOLLA (November 21, 2025)—All ...

This is the first detailed study of how and where ORC subunits regulate epigenetics and gene expression in human cells. “This is the first detailed study of how and where ORC regulates epigenetics and ...
