lncRNA Regulates Tumor Suppressor Two WaysMarch 4, 2013A little redundancy can be a good thing. A team of researchers led by Dr. Kevin Morris at the Scripps Institute, in La Jolla, recently showed that a little redundancy in the regulation of PTEN, a tumor suppressor gene, can be pretty useful…but also really complicated. PTENpg1, a PTEN pseudogene, regulates PTEN via both sense […]
Correcting Brain Tissue Heterogeneity with DNA MethylationFebruary 28, 2013A few weeks ago, we highlighted some great work that has been very useful in helping correct for heterogeneous cell populations in blood. Now, we’ve just got wind of a clever new bioinformatics tool to correct for heterogeneity in the brain. Researchers have studied DNA methylation in brain tissue to see if there’s an association between that modification and […]
