Weizmann Institute of Science and Rowan University researchers show that repair enzymes fail to fix gene structures of ...

Two groups studied the same cancer mutations in the blood. They agreed on many aspects, including the mechanism at work. But ...

Scientists have long believed that disease-causing genetic variants inevitably lead to disease. But a sea change of research ...

Scientists at St. Jude Children's Research Hospital have shown that specific brain cells respond differently to H3.3 K27M, a ...

Scientists have identified a genetic mutation that helps protect the brain function of animals that live in high-altitude, low-oxygen environments. This mutation has provided new insights into how ...

Human cells usually contain two copies of most genes, one of which comes from the mother while the other comes from the father. It's long been thought that usually these two copies, or alleles of ...

A new technique, TF-High-Evolutionary (TF-HighEvo), allows large-scale assessment of de-novo mutations in multicellular organisms. Developed in collaboration with researchers from the European ...
