A team of researchers has used advanced DNA sequencing to develop the most comprehensive atlas yet of genetic change through generations, laying the foundations for new insights into the roots of ...

Knowing how human DNA changes over generations is essential to estimating genetic disease risks and understanding how we ...

Researchers have developed a light-induced DNA detection method that enables rapid, PCR-free genetic analysis. Their technique offers ultra-sensitive mutation detection in just five minutes, reducing ...

To Ringbauer’s surprise, people from Mediterranean outposts of Phoenician culture — also known as Punic people — shared no ...

When Rogers family couldn't find information on CerTra syndrome, they founded a foundation to bring families together.

"CRISPR has revolutionized how we think about gene editing, but it has limitations. CRISPR can't target every location in the genome, and it can't fix the thousands of mutations present in ...

The workshop discussions were focused on five major topics: (1) genetic counselling and mutation analysis; (2) endoscopic surveillance and screening of cancer; (3) risk-reduction surgery of the ...

Genomic DNA was isolated and subjected to polymerase chain reaction (PCR) amplification. Sanger sequencing was performed to detect potential mutations. Bioinformatics analysis was performed to assess ...

Spinal muscle atrophy is a genetic disorder. Most forms of SMA are caused by mutations of the survival motor neuron 1 gene (SMN1) on the fifth chromosome, resulting in insufficient expression levels ...

She was always elegant, whether in her pastel chiffon saris or her famous pearl necklaces. But one of her most unforgettable moments happened in New York City when she was robbed at gunpoint for her ...

With its FDA approval for specific mutations in the RPE65 gene, it offers hope to patients who previously had limited options. The growing awareness and adoption of gene therapies in ophthalmology ...

Neanderthals and Homo sapiens shared technology and customs in the Levant, shaping early human culture through cooperation. The first published study on Tinshemet Cave reveals that Neanderthals and ...
