Scientists find human brain gene that jumps through DNA
Original: Scientists discover a human brain gene that can jump through DNA
Researchers report the discovery of a human brain gene capable of moving, or 'jumping', through the genome. Such mobile elements, known as transposons, can reshape DNA and may influence how brain cells develop and function. The finding, covered by ScienceDaily, could shed light on genetic variation and neurological disease, and is drawing attention from science readers worldwide.
Why now: A novel discovery about a jumping gene in the human brain challenges assumptions about how DNA behaves.
