Cells fine-tune gene expression in response to cellular stress, a process critical for tumor progression that leads to cancer. However, elucidating mechanisms governing stress-responsive transcription ...

A new study from the Max Planck Institute of Immunobiology and Epigenetics in Freiburg offers a likely explanation for why ...

Northwestern Medicine scientists have discovered how molecular "traffic controllers" in cells influence aging and cellular senescence—a state where cells stop dividing but remain metabolically active.

Thanks to a first-of-its-kind platform, we are starting to understand how the molecular engine responsible for transcription in mammals controls its speed. A team of researchers from The Rockefeller ...

Anti-cancer drugs often fail, but a new discovery about how two key proteins interact with DNA is changing that, serving as a ...
