New research has revealed evolutionary hotspots in DNA tangles where mutations are more likely to occur. Mutational hotspots Mutational hotspots […]
Somatic mutations are implicated in important life processes such as cancer and ageing, yet they still are not well understood. […]
A new study, published in Nature Communications, has developed a machine learning model that can identify the evolutionary pressures acting […]
A new study, published in Science, has used computational analysis to reveal the mechanisms behind germline mutations. Their findings have […]
Identifying whether specific mutations in cancer genes have an impact on tumour formation is a largely unsolved problem in the […]
A genome-wide study has identified potential risk genes that are associated with obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD), confirming the validity of using […]
Researchers have found that uninherited mutations that occur randomly during the earliest stages of embryonic development can cause spina bifida. […]
Using whole-exome sequencing (WES), researchers have identified underlying variants in children with rare genetic paediatric diseases. Rare genetic paediatric diseases […]
Researchers from ChristianaCare’s Gene Editing Institute have developed a new tool – DECODR – which reveals unwanted mutations at sites […]
A recent study, published by the American Association for Cancer Research has discovered that among patients with lung cancer from […]
