Alternative polyadenylation is a vital gene function regulatory mechanism, occurring in more than 60% of human genes. The process is required for the synthesis of diverse mRNAs and proteins from a ...
Cells regulate RNA and protein abundance through a multi-layered process. Excitingly, peeling back one layer has revealed additional layers below, highlighting the complex nature of this process. For ...
A team led by Dr. Eddie Imada, assistant professor of research in pathology and laboratory medicine, has been awarded a three-year, $1.5 million United States Department of Defense grant for research ...

Neurodegenerative diseases, such as Alzheimer's disease (AD), amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) and frontotemporal dementia (FTD) are medical conditions characterized by the progressive degradation ...
Meet PolyA-miner, a new computational tool that enables scientists to evaluate the contribution of alternative polyadenylation to gene regulation in health and disease. Researchers with an interest in ...
Individual genes express multiple mRNAs by pre-mRNA alternative splicing, alternative polyadenylation or use of alternative promoters (first exons). As a result, individual genes express multiple ...
