CRISPR can't target every location in the genome, and it can't fix the thousands of mutations present in diseases like cystic fibrosis," said co-senior author Omar Abudayyeh, Ph.D., an ...

They found epigenetic marks, but no mutations (alterations in the DNA sequence itself), on genes linked with pancreatic cancer, including two groups called PI3K and R/R/C GTPase. They had earlier ...

The researchers found that a single mutation in the virus's spike protein was enough to prevent it from attaching to human and horse cells. The mutation, however, still allowed the virus to enter ...

SPOKANE, Wash. – Lane Butts, a Spokane resident, is confronting the possibility of inheriting Huntington's disease, a genetic brain disease that affected his mother and grandfather. The ...

A new study in Cell reveals that species living miles beneath the ocean’s surface have independently evolved the same genetic mutation. These species, which diverged on the tree of life millions ...

Despite everything stacked against them, a variety of life thrives at ocean depths with bone-crushing pressure, low-oxygen, no light, and immensely cold temperatures. A new study analyzes the ...

DeepSomatic is an analysis pipeline that uses a deep neural network to call somatic variants from tumor-normal and tumor-only sequencing data.
