As one of the building blocks of the human genome, DNA has become an important agent in medicine and forensic crime-fighting. Now DNA may be used to tag merchandise with codes that counterfeiters ...

Researchers have revealed that so-called ‘junk DNA’ contains powerful switches that help control brain cells linked to Alzheimer’s disease. When people picture DNA, they often imagine a set of genes ...

Synthetic gene networks in mammalian cells are currently limited to either protein-based transcription factors or RNA-based regulators. Here, we demonstrate a regulatory approach based on circular ...

近年、私が関わってきたシダ植物の研究で、大きな前進がありました。「DNAバーコーディング」という技術を使い、これまで謎の多かったシダの「配偶体（はいぐうたい）（前葉体とも呼ばれる）」について調べられるようになったのです。 シダ植物は ...

環境DNA多種同時検出法（eDNAメタバーコーディング法）は、水中の生物群集構造を評価する強力なツールとして登場した。しかし、生物多様性をモニタリングするツールとしての有効性や取得されたデータの特性については野外での検証が行われてこなかった。
