A new Yale study provides a fuller picture of the genetic changes that shaped the evolution of the human brain, and how the ...

Preventing and treating cancer has become a global priority, with identifying cancer-driver genes being essential for understanding ... (CAS), in collaboration with other experts, proposed a graph ...

Researchers have found that some Neandertal DNA makes carriers more vulnerable to various immune disorders, such as systemic lupus erythematosus and Crohn’s disease, and some gene variants ...

The TP53 gene is a gene that is mutated in many cancers. It is the most common gene mutation found in cancer cells. A tumor-suppressor gene, TP53 codes for a protein that inhibits the development and ...

This happens through a process called epigenetics, whereby certain genes are expressed to a greater or lesser extent depending on a person’s surroundings. Abused children, for instance ...

Over half of our genomes consists of thousands of remnants of ancient viral DNA, known as transposable ... New Avenues for Gene Manipulation and Cell Plasticity Research These observations show ...

Of course, though, testing a child's parentage based on physical features is far too subjective — that's typically where DNA tests come ... leading to the theory that they form from mergers ...

Until now, DNA and RNA epigenetics were studied as independent systems. These two mechanisms seemed to function separately, each playing its own role in distinct stages of the gene regulation process.

It is caused by an inherited mutation in an allele of the HTT gene, in which a sequence of 3 DNA bases, C, A and G, is repeated at least 36 times. To understand why it takes so long for this ...

Absegami High School announced Thursday that former wrestling coach Gene Barber has died. He was 73. “Coach Barber defined Absegami athletics for a generation,” the school said in a statement ...
