In a triumph for cell biology, researchers have assembled the first high-resolution, 3D maps of entire folded genomes and found a structural basis for gene regulation -- a kind of "genomic origami" that allows the same genome to produce different types of cells. The research appears online today in Cell. A central goal of the five-year project, a collaboration between researchers at Harvard University, Baylor College of Medicine, Rice University, and the Broad Institute of Harvard and MIT, was to identify the loops in the human genome. Loops form when two bits of DNA that are far apart in the genome sequence end up in close contact in the folded version of the genome in a cell's nucleus. Researchers used a technology called "in situ Hi-C" to collect billions of snippets of DNA that were later analyzed for signs of loops. The team found that loops and other genome folding patterns are an essential part of genetic regulation. "More and more, we're realizing that folding is regulation," said study co-first author Suhas Rao, a researcher at Baylor's Center for Genome Architecture and a 2012 graduate of Harvard College. "When you see genes turn on or off, what lies behind that … Continue reading →

La Verne, Calif. (PRWEB) December 09, 2014 The University of La Verne this month received a $1 million grant from the Fletcher Jones Foundation to recruit and fill an endowed chair faculty position in computational biology, allowing the University to expose its students to new approaches in biological research. An endowed chair brings significant recognition and visibility to the University and the Natural Science Department. La Verne plans to launch a nationwide search in 2015 to fill the position, and the professor selected will work with faculty from the Natural Science Department to develop new courses in biology. The first new course will be offered to junior and senior undergraduates in two years. The University will match the grant, bringing it to $2 million. The new position and curriculum made possible by this grant will expand the training and career opportunities we offer our students and further elevate the solid reputation of the sciences at the University of La Verne, said Dr. Christine Broussard, Chair of La Vernes Natural Science Division. Computational biology is a relatively new scientific discipline, involving a mix of biology and computer science. It provides new ways scientists can conduct research and analysis using large amounts … Continue reading →
