Hemophilia, a rare inherited bleeding disorder, is primarily caused by mutations in specific genes that impair the body’s ...

Colorectal cancer (CRC), a type of cancer that affects the large intestine and rectum, is one of the leading causes of cancer ...

The cloning of the G6Pase cDNA and characterization of the human G6Pase gene by Lei et al. [4] enabled the characterization of the mutations causing GSD-1a [4–9]. This, in turn, allowed the ...

RIKEN researchers have discovered how a single mutation in one gene can simultaneously result in two symptoms—a severely compromised immune system and problems in brain development. Similar ...

UD researchers extracted the DNA from the samples and worked to amplify the MDV meq oncogene, a gene essential for MDV’s ability to cause cancer, to look at its mutations. Parcells identified ...

Investigators have developed STITCHR, a new gene editing tool that can insert therapeutic genes into specific locations without causing unwanted mutations. The system can be formulated completely as ...

Researchers harness the power of the world’s most advanced supercomputers to simulate the inner workings of cellular ...

A professor at the Broad Institute of MIT and Harvard, Liu was awarded a Breakthrough Prize in Life Sciences on Saturday for ...

a gene essential for MDV's ability to cause cancer, to look at its mutations. Parcells identified mutations in this gene that correlated with the virulence level of the virus encoding it in work ...

All other dogs were wild-type—that is, they carried the "normal" version of the gene—highlighting the rarity of this variant. Mutations in this gene have also been reported in humans ...

When the transitioning cells returned to their original identity as acinar cells, the scientists found that some of the ...
