Human genes are written in long strings of three-letter units composed of four different nucleotides. These units—or ...
Deep sequencing has revealed thousands of eukaryotic protein-coding genes that defy the central dogma, producing circular noncoding RNAs rather than linear messenger RNAs. For some genes, the ...
The genomes of phages—viruses that infect bacteria—are largely composed of "dark matter": genes that encode proteins whose functions remain unknown. Less than four years ago, a team led by Prof. Rotem ...
In a recent study published in the journal PLoS Pathogens, researchers in the United States characterized cytidine/uridine monophosphate kinase-2 (CMPK-2) as a host restriction factor, specifically ...
The human genome may contain more protein-coding genes than prior analyses suggested. A study published last month (May 29) on BioRxiv provides an expanded database of approximately 5,000 novel ...
To understand the human genome, scientists focused on protein-coding genes and their functions for decades. This has given us ...

Study links an ALS-related protein to DNA repair, cancer, and dementia risk
A protein long studied for its role in amyotrophic lateral sclerosis and frontotemporal dementia now appears to serve a ...
Late-onset Alzheimer's disease is a debilitating, progressive neurodegenerative disease that affects about 7 million Americans, a figure that is expected to nearly double by 2050, according to the ...
