Researchers have mapped the spatial distribution of around 700 long non-coding RNAs, otherwise known as lncRNAs, in the testes. The team discovered much higher levels of lncRNAs in the testes than had ...

What keeps our cells the right size? Scientists have long puzzled over this fundamental question, since cells that are too ...

What keeps our cells the right size? Scientists have long puzzled over this fundamental question, since cells that are too large or too small are ...

When a gene produces too much protein, it can have devastating consequences on brain development and function. Patients with an overproduction of protein from the chromodomain helicase DNA binding ...

SickKids researchers discovered that a long non-coding RNA, CISTR-ACT, directly regulates cell size. Using gene-editing tools ...

Originally classified as ‘junk DNA’, genomic regions which are transcribed into RNAs that do not serve as template for protein production have attracted increasing attention in the last two decades.

A newly identified class of RNA molecules has been discovered in bacteria living inside the human body. These circular ...

What keeps our cells the right size? Scientists have long puzzled over this fundamental question, since cells that are too large or too small are linked to many diseases.

Swiss start-up Haya Therapeutics has formed a partnership with Eli Lilly – worth up to $1 billion – to look for new therapies for obesity in non-coding DNA. The biotech focuses on trawling the 98% of ...
