Cornell (NY, USA) researchers have found that a new DNA sequencing technology can be used to study how transposons move within and bind to the genome. Transposons play critical roles in immune ...
Transposable elements (TEs) are repetitive DNA sequences that originate from ancient viruses and currently make up nearly half of the human genome. While TEs were once labeled as “junk” DNA with no ...
Genetic engineering in non-human primates has been challenged by the limitations of virus-based gene delivery methods. Recently, researchers in Japan successfully used a nonviral system to introduce a ...
