Before species go extinct, their populations often shrink and become isolated. Healthy populations tend to have a large gene ...

Researchers created the first bi-paternal mouse by modifying imprinting genes, advancing reproductive science but facing ...

A team of investigators from Dana-Farber Cancer Institute, The Broad Institute of MIT and Harvard, Google, and Columbia University have created an artificial intelligence model that can predict which ...

A significant advancement in knowledge of the link between cognition and genetics has been made thanks to a study led by ...

In a Phase I/II trial, patients with X-linked chronic granulomatous disease will receive a treatment created using a new ...

Monogenic conditions are caused by a single gene mutation. Access to genetic testing brings with it several advantages – one being early diagnosis for young patients with potentially life ...

Researchers uncovered unexpected patterns of mutation inheritance in the trees, revealing that some DNA damage persists unrepaired. In the case of blood stem cells, this can be for two to three years.

The authors demonstrate that two human preproprotein human mutations in the BMP4 gene cause a defect in proprotein cleavage ... suggesting that the missense mutations selectively affect the activity ...

For 30 years, researchers have known that Huntington's is caused by an inherited mutation in the Huntingtin (HTT) gene, but they didn't know how the mutation causes brain cell death. A study ...

For 30 years, researchers have known that Huntington’s is caused by an inherited mutation in the Huntingtin (HTT) gene, but they didn’t know how the mutation causes brain cell death.

Findings offer new way to understand Huntington’s and other disorders involving abnormal DNA repeats and suggest a new treatment strategy. For 30 years, researchers have known that Huntington’s ...
