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 ...

In his quest to understand how each cell of an organism interprets the same genome in a different way, researcher Sascha Duttke wondered whether there might be any undiscovered rules of biology. The ...

Every cell in the mammalian brain carries the same genome, yet neurons in the cerebellar granule layer behave nothing like ...

Researchers discovered a “spatial grammar” in DNA that controls gene activity based on the positioning of transcription factors. This finding reveals that gene regulation is more complex than ...

A newly discovered code within DNA—coined "spatial grammar"—holds a key to understanding how gene activity is encoded in the human genome. Transcription factors, the proteins that control which genes ...
