“There is strong debate in the scientific community on whether the thousands of long non-coding RNAs generated from our genomes are functional or simply byproducts of a noisy transcriptional machinery ...
Long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) represent a diverse class of transcripts that, despite lacking protein‐coding capacity, play critical roles in the regulation of gene expression. Their functions span ...
Schematic representation summarising MASLD-associated long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) and their relevant targets in hepatocytes: human leukocyte antigen (HLA) complex group 18 (HCG18), nuclear enriched ...
When a gene produces too much protein, it can have devastating consequences on brain development and function. Patients with an overproduction of protein from the chromodomain helicase DNA binding ...
As a PhD student at the University of Münster in the early 2000s, Sven Diederichs would bike three kilometers each morning to a compact lab in a brick building on the hospital campus. There, he’d ...
Long non-coding RNAs (lncRNA) are a type of RNA molecule that do not carry instructions to make proteins. Instead, they influence how other genes are expressed. There are tens of thousands of lncRNAs ...
Mutations in the tau gene that cause frontotemporal dementia wreak all manner of neuronal havoc, from endolysosomal traffic jams to mitochondrial distress to a standstill in nucleocytoplasmic ...
The human genome contains about 20,000 protein-coding genes, but that only accounts for roughly two percent of the genome. For many years, it was easier for scientists to simply ignore all of that ...
Genes contain instructions for making proteins, and a central dogma of biology is that this information flows from DNA to RNA to proteins. But only two percent of the human genome actually encodes ...
