Genetic variants believed to cause blindness in nearly everyone who carries them actually lead to vision loss less than 30% ...

Researchers have refined a powerful DNA sequencing tool that can uncover hidden mutations that occur naturally in our bodies as we age. In the largest study to date, they have used the tool to provide ...

Australian researchers have discovered that a single mutation in the DNA sequence for a methylation enzyme dysregulates key tumor-suppressing pathways, opening up new avenues for blood cancer ...

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

Researchers developed a single-cell sequencing method that simultaneously measures cancer-linked DNA mutations and gene ...

Scientists say they have found a pattern of so-called epigenetic 'marks' in a transition state between normal and pancreatic cancer cells in mice, and that the normal cells may keep at least a ...

DNA doesn’t just sit still inside our cells — it folds, loops, and rearranges in ways that shape how genes behave.

DURHAM, N.C. -- Researchers at Duke University's School of Medicine helped discover a new strain of coronavirus. Dr. David Montefiori, a professor of surgery who also serves as Director of the ...

A whole-genome sequencing approach shows early promise over current commercial methods for identifying more patients likely ...

Researchers have unveiled a way to flip genes back on without slicing into the genome, a shift that could make CRISPR far ...
