Genotype-First Approach Uncovers New Links to Genetic Conditions
Researchers have published an assessment of 13 studies that took a genotype-first approach to patient care that contrasts with the typical phenotype-first approach to clinical research, which starts with clinical findings.

T Cell Subset Found To Secrete Cytokines
Certain T cells can secrete cytokines that are normally part of the innate immune system, a previously unknown property relevant to autoimmune diseases as well as fighting fungal infections.

Ancestors of the CRISPR-Cas System Are Reconstructed
For the first time, researchers have reconstructed ancestors dating back 2.6 billion years of the well-known CRISPR-Cas system and studied their evolution over time.

CRISPR Protein Could Provide New Tests for Many Viruses
In a first for the genetic toolset known as CRISPR, a recently discovered protein has been found to act as a kind of multipurpose self-destruct system for bacteria, capable of degrading single-stranded RNA, single-stranded DNA and double-stranded DNA.

Fasting Reshapes Gene Expression in Mice
In a murine study, scientists have shown how time-restricted eating influences gene expression across more than 22 regions of the body and brain.

Microprotein Increases Feeding Activity in Mice
Fat tissues contain thousands of previously unidentified microproteins, one of which has been shown to increase appetite in mice.

Small RNAs Found To Boost Salmonella's Virulence
New research has shown how small RNAs help Salmonella bacteria express virulence genes during infection.

Engineered Proteins Store Cellular “Memories”
Researchers have developed a technique to allow cells to produce long protein chains that encode particular cellular events, which can then be read under a microscope.
