There are approximately 800 annotated G protein–coupled receptor (GPCR) genes, making these membrane receptors members of the most abundant gene family in the human …
Successful treatment of many patients with advanced cancer using antibodies against programmed cell death 1 (PD-1; also known as PDCD1) and its ligand (PD-L1; also known …

Neurons localize mRNAs near synapses where their translation can be regulated by synaptic demand and activity. Differences in the 3′ UTRs of mRNAs can change their …
SQANTI3 is a tool designed for the quality control, curation and annotation of long-read transcript models obtained with third-generation sequencing technologies. Leveraging its …
Regulation of gene expression is executed in many cases by RNA-binding proteins (RBPs) that bind to mRNAs as well as to non-coding RNAs. RBPs recognize their RNA target via …
Several mechanisms of action have been proposed for DNA methyltransferase and histone deacetylase inhibitors (DNMTi and HDACi), primarily based on candidate-gene approaches …
