The expression pattern of a single gene or multiple genes can be investigated using a technique RNA microarray. In this technique, RNA molecules are ‘spotted’ onto a solid surface. These act as probes ...

While the large proportion of our genome that does not instruct our cells to form proteins has been harder to study than protein-coding genes, it has been shown to have vital physiological functions.

The sequence of a protein determines its structure and function. Despite this clear correlation, understanding the relationship between protein sequence and function is a complex and largely unsolved ...

A novel bioinformatics approach for classifying proteins according to similarity of function, rather than of sequence, is described in the April 12 PNAS. Albert Y. Lau and Daniel I. Chasman of ...

A blue-and-gray 3D representation of a strand of DNA with other strands floating in the background. Google has officially released its AlphaGenome machine learning model, which can predict the ...

Marking a significant technology breakthrough in tracking the interactions between RNA and DNA, scientists at the University of California have evolved a new technique. Known as Mapping RNA Genome ...
