Scientists have revealed parts of the genome that are especially vulnerable to mutations that occur very early on in development. These areas are in the initial portions of genes, where the cell tends ...
When a zygote begins cell division at a rapid rate, errors happen, and a new study found that base pairs near a gene’s transcription state sites (TSS) are particularly vulnerable. By analyzing some ...
Concern surrounding the highly pathogenic avian influenza H5N1 influenza virus currently circulating in dairy cows in the United States is growing. A total of 58 human cases have been reported as of ...

This rare mutation destroys brain cells, scientists found the cause
Scientists have traced a devastating pattern of brain cell loss in a handful of families to a single, ultra-rare mutation ...
The analysis revealed that about 2 per cent of sperm from men in their early 30s contained disease-causing mutations. That ...
MEMPHIS, Tenn. - Just how deadly is the bird flu? The virus, which is currently sweeping through U.S. dairy herds, rarely jumps to human beings. But when it does, the consequences can be lethal. A ...
This study offers important insight into the pathogenic basis of intragenic frameshift deletions in the carboxy-terminal domain of MECP2, which account for some Rett syndrome cases, yet similar ...
