These findings have increased our understanding of the evolutionary forces that affect the human genome, have augmented our knowledge of gene function and promise to increase our understanding of ...

A new study in the journal Human Gene Therapy indicates that DNA impurities derived from plasmid and host cell DNA are encapsulated into recombinant adeno-associated virus (rAAV) capsids as single ...

A genetically modified mini pig’s liver was able to function in the body of a brain-dead patient throughout a 10-day experiment.

An obvious drawback to any kind of tissue profiling is that the resulting gene list bears unknown significance ... Insights from genome-wide analyses of human tumour tissue and innovative ...

"Our knowledge base allows scientists to go from just a list of genes to an understanding ... to combine experimental data collected from human genes with that obtained from related genes in ...

It's early days for xenotransplantation, but eGenesis, Eledon, United Therapeutics and more are working to develop solutions ...

a human genetic code would fill the pages of 200 1,000-page New York City telephone directories. Though we can't compile all the facts here, this list of mind-boggling facts and figures will get ...

It was also mind-boggling when, in 1987, British researchers demonstrated that a human gene could be inserted into the cells of a lowly yeast -- and it functioned perfectly well. In this landmark ...

An additional four genes associated with canine obesity, but which exert a smaller effect than DENND1B, were also mapped directly onto human genes. "These genes are not immediately obvious targets ...
