The takeaway here is that we may all have a genetic predisposition of some kind, for autoimmune diseases. Some, due to various gene combinations, may have greater susceptibility than others, but we may all have some degree of susceptibility. Sure, we’ve uncovered various genes that are associ...

How do stabilizing proteins work on the DNA? How does DNA-binding protein bind to DNA? What is the difference between a gene and a genetic code? Is the gene the instructions for making proteins, or does it contain the genetic code which is the set of instructions for making proteins?
You’re not “destined” to be anything in particular just because of biological sex or genetic ancestry.Genetics can only tell us about probabilities and relative frequency of particular instructions for making proteins. How can you trace your lineage?
Arranged along the chromosomes are sequences of chemicals that form genes. Each gene is a part of the chromosome that contains some of the instructions for making you you. Genes control the color of your hair, how tall you will be, the color of your eyes, the color of your skin, and ...
Several methods have been proposed to select sets of genes that experience very similar changes between different experimental conditions. The two most frequently used are the geNorm3and the NormFinder4methods. Both methods rank the candidate reference genes by order of increased stability. However, th...
At least 6 μg of genomic DNA from each accession was used to construct a sequencing library following the manufacturer's instructions (Illumina Inc.). Paired-end sequencing libraries with an insert size of approximately 300 bp were sequenced on an Illumina HiSeq 2000 sequencer at BerryGenomics ...
The discovery builds on earlier findings showed that a class of genes called splicing (胶接) factors is progressively switched off as we age. The research team found that splicing factors can be switched back on with chemicals, making aging cells not only look 1 younger, but start to divide ...
We each have a unique genetic(基因的,遗传的)make-up.Every cell of your body has the same set of about 100,000 separate genes made of DNA.These are the instructions for producing a person.Genes decide everything from the colour of your skin to the way your brain works.You have one of...
Physical activity is well known for its multiple health benefits and although the knowledge of the underlying molecular mechanisms is increasing, our understanding of the role of epigenetics in long-term training adaptation remains incomplete. In this in
