We learn that we inherit two copies of every gene, one from each of our parents, but the story is a bit more complex. Some parts of the genome may be duplicated, or deleted, in some people. The number ...

The evolution of the MUC7 gene, which encodes a saliva protein, was studied by scientists at the University at Buffalo. To capture the gene’s proline-, threonine-, and serine-rich tandem repeat copy ...

Copy number variation (CNV) refers to an increase or decrease in the number of copies of a DNA sequence in a genome, which can subsequently be implicit in promoting aberrant gene expression patterns ...

Molecular analysis of thymidylate synthase in circulating tumor cells as a potential marker of response to therapy in locally advanced rectal cancer.

Association of SPARC expression with metastatic progression and prostate cancer-specific mortality after radical prostatectomy. Post-treatment alterations in 18F-dihydrotestosterone (FDHT) and FDG PET ...
