In the grimdark future of the 41st millennium, there is only war, and you can fight your way through it, beginning with the ...

Once a mapping population is available, the present method allows a single investigator to identify a causative mutation in only 8 working days of hands-on time. Furthermore, de novo marker ...

Genome editing with CRISPR-Cas is often associated with the induction of mutations. However, a team of researchers from the Swiss University of Lausanne now shows that it can also be used to ...

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.

Driver mutations are the pathophysiological hallmark of the disease, but the role of mutation clearance after transplantation is unclear. In patients with myelofibrosis, clearance of driver ...

Researchers in the group of Dr. Myriam Charpentier discovered a mutation in a gene in the legume Medicago truncatula that reprograms the signaling capacity of the plant so that it enhances ...

In early December 2024, a group of researchers published an article in the journal Science, entitled "A single mutation in bovine influenza H5N1 hemagglutinin switches specificity to human receptors".

Radiation-induced mutation is unlikely to have induced genetic differences between dog populations in Chornobyl City and the nearby Chornobyl Nuclear Power Plant. Radiation-induced mutation is ...

A comprehensive analysis of over 500,000 human protein variants reveals that 60% of disease-causing missense mutations reduce protein stability In a recent study published in Nature, researchers ...

By analyzing the largest collection of whole-genome data from osteosarcoma patients, the researchers identified a new mutation mechanism, called loss-translocation-amplification (LTA ...

This means that the damage has multiple chances to generate harmful mutations, which can lead to cancer. While most known types of DNA damage are fixed by our cells' in-house DNA repair mechanisms ...
