Broad Institute researchers have developed a way to edit the genetic sequences at the root of Huntington's disease and ...

behavioural abnormalities and progressive disease course proves negative to the genetic testing for HD causative mutations, that is, IT15 gene trinucleotide-repeat expansion. The differential ...

Modern HIV medicine is based on a common genetic mutation. Now, researchers have traced where and when the mutation arose -- and how it protected our ancestors from ancient diseases. Modern HIV ...

A newly identified mutation helps super-sleepers get by on just four to six hours of shut-eye per night, while the rest of us need around eight hours. Researchers described the SIK3-N783Y mutation ...

Weather events and possible mutations are the best way to maximize the value of your crops in Grow a Garden. Mutations can randomly occur, be brought on by changes in the weather, or even be ...

Australian researchers have discovered that a single mutation in the DNA sequence for a methylation enzyme dysregulates key tumor-suppressing pathways, opening up new avenues for blood cancer ...

Some lucky people have rare genetic mutations that enable them to feel well-rested after just four hours of sleep, while the rest of us need around eight hours to function. Now, researchers have ...

Modern-day HIV treatments may stem from a genetic mutation dating back to the Viking Age, researchers said. Steinar Engeland via Unsplash On June 5, 1981, the Centers for Disease Control and ...

It is now well established that cancer is a genetic disease and that somatic mutations of oncogenes and tumour suppressor genes are the initiators of the carcinogenic process. The ...
