A new study on dogs found that chromatin's spatial structure has a significant role in the evolution of social behavior. Chromatin, the compact form of DNA, not only packages genetic material but also ...

Researchers say findings help to bridge the structure of the genome to its function in managing how genes are turned on and off.

This includes the labeling of the dCas9 protein, engineering of sgRNA, and the use of dCas9 orthologs from different bacterial species. CRISPR, clustered regularly interspaced short palindromic ...
