The 3′-untranslated region (3′UTR) of some vertebrate dystrophin genes shows an extraordinary degree and extent of conservation (better than that of many coding regions), a phenomenon that remains ...

Researchers say they have uncovered new information that more accurately explains how cancerous tumors grow within the body. Their study (“3’ UTR shortening represses tumor-suppressor genes in trans ...

A library, wrote Victor Hugo, implies an act of faith. And so it is with a newly compiled library of human 3′-untranslated regions, or 3′-UTRs. Although this library of post-transcriptional regulatory ...

When it comes to identifying cancer-driving mutations, research has focused almost exclusively on understanding how mutations in the coding region of genes may alter a protein’s function to promote ...
