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 that sabotages one of the brain’s key protective enzymes. The discovery not ...
A new long-read sequencing technique has helped researchers investigate how DNA mutations arise in a variety of contexts. A collaboration of researchers led by NYU Langone Health and NYU Grossman ...
The regions are located at the starting point of genes, also known as transcription start sites. These are sequences where cellular machinery starts to copy DNA into RNA. The first 100 base pairs ...
A groundbreaking study published in this week’s issue of PNAS by scientists from Israel and Ghana shows that an evolutionarily significant mutation in the human APOL1 gene arises not randomly but more ...
