A mysterious genetic disease wiped out generations of one family before science uncovered its cause. This talk reveals how a ...

The first 100 bases of many genes show excess mutations, revealing a major genomic weak spot that shapes disease risk and ...

Scientists discovered that certain gene changes allow cells to function even when frataxin, the protein lost in Friedreich’s ...

New bird flu mutations can survive human fever, making the virus potentially more dangerous. Learn how PB1 gene increases risk and how to stay safe.

Scientists at the Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai have developed a novel artificial intelligence tool that not only identifies disease-causing genetic mutations but also predicts the type of ...

With a rate of mutation 35 percent higher than random chance, this previously unknown weakness could be a major vector for ...

Researchers have discovered new regions of the human genome particularly vulnerable to mutations. These altered stretches of DNA can be passed down to future generations and are important for how we ...

Researchers have identified specific genes containing rare mutations that significantly increase the likelihood of developing ...

Their data suggests that tweaking the expression of FDX2 could make up for the loss of frataxin, the protein tied to FA's development.

A new study reports that the locations where genes begin are particularly prone to mutations, and these genetic changes can ...
