From the completion of the pilot phase of The ENCODE Project in 2007, it has been evident that there is much more to a gene than the just a sequence that codes for protein, changing our concept of ...

The research represents a major step forward in revealing how the three dimensional form of DNA shapes the way human biology functions. In a major step toward understanding how the physical form of ...

A newly discovered code within DNA -- coined 'spatial grammar' -- holds a key to understanding how gene activity is encoded in the human genome. This breakthrough finding revealed a long-postulated ...
