MIT Reveals Hidden Codes in DNA: A Breakthrough That Could Revolutionize Medicine
30th June 2024
By capturing short-lived RNA molecules, scientists can map relationships between genes and the regulatory elements that control them.
MIT researchers have innovated a method to observe the interaction between genes and enhancers by monitoring their activation times, helping to pinpoint drug targets for genetic disorders. This technique also enhances understanding of eRNA’s function in gene regulation and disease treatment.
