New research sheds light on how genes turn on and off
Updated : 3 years, 4 months ago IST
Using CRISPR techniques, the researchers removed parts of the yeast transcription machinery to systematically examine their role in regulating genes. Yeast and humans have mostly the same molecular machinery to regulate their genes, so yeast provides an excellent model for understanding gene
