Cornell 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 response, ...

Transposons, so-called jumping genes, are a threat to genomes, so plants work hard to prevent them from mobilizing and ...

In a study published in Cell, a research team led by ZHANG Yong'e and WANG Haoyi from the Institute of Zoology of the Chinese Academy of Sciences has characterized the diversity of DNA transposons and ...

Transposons, or "jumping genes" – DNA segments that can move from one part of the genome to another – are key to bacterial evolution and the development of antibiotic resistance. Cornell University ...

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 ...

CU Boulder researcher Edward Chuong recently received an international award for his lab’s work studying transposons in the human genome Our genome, it turns out, is full of freeloaders—selfish ...

Our genome, any geneticist will tell you, can be a chaotic place. In addition to holding the necessary instructions for life, our DNA also houses droves of mobile genetic snippets that can ...
