This animation explains how RNAi works and introduces the two main players: small interfering RNAs (siRNAs) and microRNAs (miRNAs). We take you on an audio-visual journey, diving into a cell to show how genes are transcribed to make messenger RNA (mRNA) and how RNAi can silence specific mRNAs to stop them from making proteins. The animation is based on the latest research, to give you an up-to-date view. If you'd like to know more about the structures and processes you see in this video, check out the accompanying slideshow: http://www.nature.com/nrg/multimedia/rnai/animation/index.html]]> https://bioinformaticsonline.com/videolist/watch/4297/how-genes-are-regulated-transcription-factors Thu, 05 Sep 2013 16:54:19 -0500 https://bioinformaticsonline.com/videolist/watch/4297/how-genes-are-regulated-transcription-factors Each cell in our body inherits the same master copy of DNA, but different cell types use it differently. Transcription Factors help influence which genes are used in which cell. Understanding how these dynamic proteins physically interact with DNA allows us to better understand and model their binding to DNA and their regulation of gene expression.

In the spirit of ideas worth spreading, TEDx is a program of local, self-organized events that bring people together to share a TED-like experience. At a TEDx event, TEDTalks video and live speakers combine to spark deep discussion and connection in a small group. These local, self-organized events are branded TEDx, where x = independently organized TED event. The TED Conference provides general guidance for the TEDx program, but individual TEDx events are self-organized.* (*Subject to certain rules and regulations)]]> https://bioinformaticsonline.com/videolist/watch/4143/bioinformatics-career-overview Sun, 01 Sep 2013 18:25:46 -0500 https://bioinformaticsonline.com/videolist/watch/4143/bioinformatics-career-overview A brief overview of Bioinformatics career opportunities brought to you by the University of South Dakota Computer Science Department]]>
