In the complex landscape of mental health research, a new peer-reviewed Viewpoint review sheds light on an underexplored genetic player: the trace amine-associated receptor 1 (TAAR1). Published in ...
A graph-based computational tool for detecting previously invisible genetic mutations has been developed. Researchers at the University of California, Los Angeles (UCLA; USA) and the University of ...
Targeted resequencing of DNA allows researchers to focus on genes of interest for cost-effective analysis of genetic variations. Typically, to analyze single nucleotide mutations and copy number ...
This research provides a comprehensive analysis of deleterious mutations in pear (Pyrus spp.) during domestication, shedding light on their impact on agronomic traits. By resequencing 232 pear ...
Scientists at UCLA and the University of Toronto have developed an advanced computational tool, called moPepGen, that helps identify previously invisible genetic mutations in proteins, unlocking new ...
Next-generation sequencing technologies have catapulted the field of genomics back into the spotlight thanks to fast, accurate, and historically low-cost sequencing methods. As of today, the cost of ...
Most lethal mutations in wild fruit flies are driven by newly transferred jumping genes, not small DNA errors, according to a new study from Duke University. The findings, published in PLOS Biology, ...
Like all forms of cancer, lung canceris defined by uncontrolled cell division caused by loss of physiological tissue homeostasis and failure of apoptotic cell death mechanisms. Aberrant cell ...
