Genes That “Jump” May Rewire Neuronal Function in the Brain – Technology Networks
A research team has used novel single-cell sequencing methods to analyze the expression of transposons in the brains of Drosophila melanogaster fruit fli…
Genome, misunderstood
There has been great advancement in our understanding of genomics in recent decades, with the completion of The Human Genome Project in 2003 and the technological advances in our ability to sequence DNA. But for many years, a large portion of the genome (~ 97%) was dismissed and incorrectly branded as “junk” on the basis that it did not code for proteins. Whilst some research groups pondered over the role of this mysterious part of the genome, the majority of the noughties…
