An in vivo base editing approach targeting the PRNP gene led to a 52% increase in the lifespan of mouse models inoculated with the most common sporadic and genetic types of human pathogenic prion ...

The TP53 gene is a gene that is mutated in many cancers. It is the most common gene mutation found in cancer cells. A tumor-suppressor gene, TP53 codes for a protein that inhibits the development and ...

ELKHART, Ind. (WNDU) - The largest federal grant in Elkhart’s history will fund a new overpass over the Hively Avenue railroad crossing. The Hively Avenue overpass will separate foot traffic ...

ELKHART — The City of Elkhart was awarded a $19,818,219 grant by the U.S. Department of Transportation to support the Hively Avenue Trax project. “We’ve talked about this since I became ...

The first human trial of insulin-producing cells that have been gene-edited to evade immune attack is a success so far. The cells have survived and produced insulin for a month after being ...

This complex process, known as gene expression, determines which proteins we make and whether we make them in the correct amounts, crucial work given that proteins play a role in virtually every a ...

A ba­by boy born with a de­bil­i­tat­ing ge­net­ic dis­ease will like­ly no longer re­quire a liv­er trans­plant to sta­bi­lize his con­di­tion, thanks to a first … ...

Summary: Researchers have developed an AI model that accurately predicts gene activity in any human cell, providing insights into cellular functions and disease mechanisms. Trained on data from over 1 ...

The same is now possible in gene editing. Rather than employ separate tools for editing genes and regulating their expression, these distinct goals can now be combined into a single tool that can ...

Some genes are beneficial and enhance longevity. For example, the gene that helps a person metabolize cholesterol would reduce a person's risk of heart disease. Some gene mutations are inherited.
