Comprehensive resource describes functions of more than 20,000 human genes

Surprising mechanism for removing dead cells identified: « The system is seemingly spatially tuned to the presence of corpses, and it only functions when each receptor picks up the signal is attuned to. If one of them disappears, the mechanism stops operating. »

GeneMAP discovery platform will help define functions for 'orphan' metabolic proteins

Researchers develop RNA-targeting technology for precisely manipulating parts of human genes
