A new study published in Science Advances introduces a powerful brain imaging technique that can detect autism-linked genetic ...

It is one of the three known DNA markers: 4mC, 5mC, and 6mA. Since these chemical markers only "mask" the underlying genetic code without mutating it, they are called "epigenetic markers," based on ...

Today, these marker types are typically visualized using chemifluorescence and genetic analyzers, which detect the fluorescent emission of labeled primers (as in the case of MSATs) or the ...

We introduce a differential abundance analysis method for the analysis of sparse high-throughput data from large-scale surveys of marker genes for microbial communities. Our approach relies on ...

Using a visible marker to indicate gene activity, they found that about half of the enhancers worked as intended and turned tissue blue when and where they sensed tissue injury in the transgenic ...

Since these chemical markers only "mask" the underlying genetic code without mutating it, they are called "epigenetic markers," based on the Greek prefix epi, meaning "over," "outside of," or ...
