For more than a century, heredity has been framed through the tidy logic of Mendel’s pea plants: traits pass from parent to ...
A major mouse study found that some inherited traits are passed down through epigenetic changes that break the classic rules ...
In Mendelian inheritance patterns, you receive one version of a gene, called an allele, from each parent. These alleles can be dominant or recessive. Non-Mendelian genetics don’t completely follow ...

A Johns Hopkins-Texas A&M mouse study found 7% of inherited DNA methylation patterns ignore Mendel’s rules across three generations
Researchers at Johns Hopkins University and Texas A&M University have documented at least 522 autosomal sites where DNA ...
Scientists have long known that the DNA code in genes is not the only way to pass genetic traits from parents to offspring. "Epigenetic" marks—chemical modifications to DNA that don't change the DNA ...
Jaime Murillo, MD, explores genetic inheritance patterns of Lp(a) from childhood to adulthood, highlighting stability, factors affecting measurement, and awareness challenges among those in the health ...
The blueprint of who we are begins with the genes passed down from our parents. While these inherited traits give us our eye color and height, they can also contain instructions that increase our risk ...
Retinitis pigmentosa (RP) is an eye condition that can be genetic. In this way, people usually need to inherit two copies of a genetic variation that causes RP, one coming from each parent. RP may ...
