A study by IRB Barcelona reveals that transfer RNA (tRNA) genes accumulate mutations at a frequency up to nine times higher ...

A study finds tRNA genes are mutation hotspots that alter protein synthesis, leading to proteome instability, contributing to ...

Researchers have used saturation genome editing to test every variant in the non coding gene RNU4 2, revealing new pathogenic ...

Scientists have uncovered new genetic causes of diabetes in infants, pointing to a region of the genome that has long been ...

Over the past two decades, scientists discovered that the majority of melanic wing color variants are controlled by a single genomic region surrounding the protein-coding gene 'cortex'. It was assumed ...

For millennia, evolution has intrigued many great thinkers, prompting questions about how new traits emerge as species adapt over time. Then, attention shifted to natural selection and the inheritance ...
