A University of Illinois and Mayo collaboration has demonstrated a novel gene expression analysis technique that can accurately measure levels of RNA quickly and directly from a cancerous tissue ...
Assisted reproductive techniques alter the expression of genes that are important for metabolism and the transport of nutrients in the placenta of mice. The results underscore the need for greater ...
A new gene expression technique adapted for single molecule sequencing has enabled researchers in Japan to accurately and quantitatively measure gene expression levels using only 100 nanograms of ...
In diseases associated with immune reactions or dysregulations such as infections, autoimmunity, cancer, as well as in genetic and metabolic disorders, changes in the cellular component of peripheral ...
Reverse Transcription Quantitative PCR (RT-qPCR) Custom primer pairs target genes of interest, and fluorescence from reporter molecules measured over time indicates gene expression. While RT-qPCR is ...
Biologists face an operational problem when trying to understand the dynamic changes in gene expression that occur as cells age, differentiate or become diseased. On the one hand, techniques that ...
A University of Minnesota Twin Cities-led team has developed a new technique that allows scientists and engineers to, for the first time, visualize mRNA molecules in the brains of living mice. The ...
While recombinant protein expression is a staple in the toolbox of many researchers, obtaining large quantities of a biologically active protein remains a challenge. Successful expression of a ...
The 30,000 or so genes making up the human genome contain the instructions vital to life. Yet each of our cells expresses only a subset of these genes in their daily functioning. The difference ...
