When it comes to identifying cancer-driving mutations, research has focused almost exclusively on understanding how mutations in the coding region of genes may alter a protein’s function to promote ...
Despite progress in defining functional elements of noncoding DNA, it is still not fully understood. Researchers, using an experiment that elucidated the function of tens of thousands of noncoding ...
EMBL researchers created SDR-seq, a next-generation tool that decodes both DNA and RNA from the same cell. It finally opens access to non-coding regions, where most disease-associated genetic variants ...
In a recent study published in Nature, researchers in the United States aggregated and processed 76,156 human genomes to construct a genomic constraint map named "genomic non-coding constraint of ...
