“This suggests that longer-lived species may have evolved molecular programs that optimize splicing for longevity, allowing ...

A collaborative study by scientists at the University of California, Riverside, and University of Southern California reports ...

Alternative splicing is a genetic process where different segments of genes are removed, and the remaining pieces are joined together during transcription to messenger RNA (mRNA). This mechanism ...

Genes which determine animal complexity – or what makes humans so much more complex than a fruit fly or a sea urchin – have been identified for the first time. The secret mechanism for how a cell in ...
