Many people are familiar with histamine, a biological molecule that serves as a key driver of allergic reactions and other ...

A new study led by Aaron Hobbs, Ph.D., and Rachel Burge, Ph.D., at MUSC Hollings Cancer Center, reveals why a specific gene ...

Scientists have created a new technique that can assess how mutations in the genome influence the packaging of DNA in cells. The genome is massive, and has to be carefully wrapped around proteins so ...

A new single-cell profiling technique has mapped pre-malignant gene mutations and their effects in solid tissues for the ...

This important study introduces a new biology-informed strategy for deep learning models aiming to predict mutational effects in antibody sequences. It provides solid evidence that separating ...

Nearly 1 in 7 adults in the United States lives with chronic kidney disease, a condition that often advances quietly until serious damage has occurred. While diabetes and high blood pressure are ...

A new long-read sequencing technique has helped researchers investigate how DNA mutations arise in a variety of contexts. A collaboration of researchers led by NYU Langone Health and NYU Grossman ...

A graph-based computational tool for detecting previously invisible genetic mutations has been developed. Researchers at the University of California, Los Angeles (UCLA; USA) and the University of ...

The RAS family commonly drives the growth and survival of human cancers. Mutations in KRAS, NRAS, and HRAS occur in approximately 20% of all human cancers, including solid tumors, such as pancreatic, ...

In a new study, terrestrial bacteria-infecting viruses were still able to infect their E. coli hosts in near-weightless ...

Study highlights importance of cancer driver biology in translating results from lab to patients -- -- Findings validate proprietary OncoSLX Platform (TM), a pharmacogenetic approach that captures the ...
