Inside every cell, thousands of molecular signals collide, overlap, and compensate, obscuring the true drivers of gene expression.

Bacteria aren’t just mindless microbes. Research by scientists at the Hebrew University of Jerusalem has revealed that single bacterial cells can carry a “memory” of their past environments—passing it ...

Researchers at the Department of Chemical Engineering and Biotechnology (CEB) have found a new way to organize molecules inside living cells, opening possibilities for more controlled and efficient ...

The cartoon illustrates how single-cell transcriptomics works: all mRNA molecules are recorded and characterized from countless bacterial cells, which are shown here in survival size on a conveyor ...

Microcolonies as a window into memory The Microcolony-seq method works by isolating tiny colonies that sprout from individual bacteria, analyzing their RNA, genomes, and physical traits. This approach ...

Antibiotic-driven modifications to ribosomal RNA (rRNA) have been suspected of giving rise to antibiotic resistance. For example, antibiotics can alter methylation patterns in rRNA, changing rRNA ...

Bacteria aren't just mindless microbes. New research from the Hebrew University of Jerusalem reveals that single bacterial cells can carry a "memory" of their past environments-passing it down through ...

Marlene Belfort does not work for, consult, own shares in or receive funding from any company or organization that would benefit from this article, and has disclosed no relevant affiliations beyond ...

RNA sequencing (RNA-seq) is a powerful tool in diagnosing Mendelian disorders, but the optimized sequencing depth for this technology has not yet been determined. In a new study published in the ...

Researchers from the Faculty of Engineering at The University of Hong Kong (HKU) have developed two innovative deep-learning algorithms, ClairS-TO and Clair3-RNA, that significantly advance genetic ...
