deCODE biostructures Announces Collaborative Research Agreement with Institut de Recherche Servier

Researchers have made a major discovery about how “DNA binding proteins” latch onto the human genome at particular places to turn genes on or off.

By combining deep learning algorithms and statistical methods, researchers have identified, in the genome of Asiatic individuals, the footprint of a new hominid who cross bred with its ancestors tens of thousands of years ago.

Researchers suggest differences in the geographic origin of genes may affect the function of human mitochondria--energy-generating organelles inside of cells.
