Evolution, Conservation, Change, Robustness, Complexity and Degeneracy
For species to be successful and adapt to an ever changing environment, they must strike a delicate balance between allowing for some DNA alterations, while at the same time preserving the key developmental processes encoded in their unique genomes. This poses a problem, as even small changes in any given gene might lead to deleterious […]

Gene Expression and Transcription Regulation
One of the main beliefs in biology today is that there is a relationship between genes that share common promoter motifs and their expression. It makes sense that if genes share common regulatory elements that they would be turned on and off under similar conditions – and thus would have similar microarray expression profiles. A […]
