Non-coding DNA is essential for both humans and trypanosomes, despite the large evolutionary divergence between these two species.

In a new study, stem cell scientists at the Lund University, Sweden, explore the role of non-coding regions of the genome—previously deemed to be functionless “junk” DNA—and find humans and ...

Researchers are investigating the role of non-coding DNA, or junk DNA, in regulating astrocytes, brain cells involved in ...

Researchers have created the most comprehensive map to date of DNA elements that regulate gene activity, nearly tripling the ...

A new study has deciphered the mechanical code of DNA to reveal previously unknown ways in which nature encodes biological information in DNA sequence. Led by Durham University, UK, an international ...
