A team of researchers at the Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai has uncovered why children with the same ...
A new study reports that the locations where genes begin are particularly prone to mutations, and these genetic changes can ...
Thousands of previously “invisible” microproteins—tiny chains of fewer than 100 amino acids—can profoundly change human biology when mutated. A fundamental discovery is overturning decades of ...
Tatiana Schlossberg, the youngest granddaughter of President John F. Kennedy, recently revealed she was diagnosed with terminal acute myeloid leukemia (AML) due to a rare genetic anomaly. In a ...
Traditional biochemical methods of studying human gene mutations are often laborious and costly. Now bioengineers at the University of California San Diego have developed a new simple approach to ...
Life makes mistakes. A major genetic study shows how some of those mistakes worked out well for humans. By Jocelyn Solis-Moreira Published Apr 27, 2023 2:00 PM EDT Get the Popular Science daily ...
Researchers have discovered new regions of the human genome particularly vulnerable to mutations. These altered stretches of ...
The order of cancer-driving mutations—genetic changes—plays an important role in whether tumors in the intestine can develop, ...
Human eggs appear to be protected against a certain type of age-related mutation. In a small study, researchers found no signs that mutations accumulate in the mitochondrial DNA of human egg cells as ...
