UC San Diego researchers have identified a frequently used DNA activation code that could eventually be used to control gene activation in biotechnology and biomedical applications. Their findings ...

The University of California San Diego researchers used artificial intelligence to identify a DNA activation code, which was previously known to be "an enigma," but can later be utilized in n ...

Biologists have used machine learning, a type of AI, to identify 'synthetic extreme' DNA sequences with specifically designed functions in gene activation. They tested 50 million DNA sequences and ...

Scientists have long known that human genes are activated through instructions delivered by the precise order of our DNA. With the aid of artificial intelligence, researchers have solved a ...

Bends in the genome called i-motifs, which look like a “W” folded in the middle along the Y axis, lead to the upregulation of a gene, while hairpins in the same location of a gene cause suppression, ...

The mammalian liver has an extraordinary regenerative capacity, capable of fully restoring its mass and function after injury or partial resection. A study led by researchers at the University of ...

Many genes in Saccharomyces cerevisiae are recruited to the nuclear periphery after transcriptional activation. We have identified two gene recruitment sequences (GRS I and II) from the promoter of ...

Innate immunity relies on the ability of the host to detect unique molecular patterns displayed by potential pathogens. Viruses and their distinctive replication cycles can generate a variety of ...
