Scientists admit we were wrong about genes and your lifespan
For years, the standard line in longevity research was that genes only nudged the odds of a long life while lifestyle and ...
In earlier work, an MIT researcher who was not involved in this study had switched off each gene in that cell line, one at a time, and tracked how losing that gene changed genetic activity. Marson's ...
CDKL5, one of the five members of the CDKL family of genes, is important for proper neurodevelopment and associated with seizures. However, the role the other four members of this family play in ...
A duplicated gene evolved into a switch that determines sex in frogs, revealing how evolution can safely reshape critical ...
Near the end of the classic 1942 movie Casablanca when Major Strasser is shot, Captain Renault famously pretends not to know who fired the gun and orders his officers to “round up the usual suspects.” ...
