At least 11 million people have gotten sick and 5,000 people have died from the flu this season. Here's what Michigan is ...
In Brazil, the early detection of genetic alterations in lung cancer through liquid biopsies could be a valuable tool for ...
A vanishingly rare genetic glitch in a single enzyme can erase a newborn’s brain cells in a matter of weeks, leaving doctors with almost no way to intervene. Researchers have now traced that ...
In a recent study posted to the bioRxiv* preprint server, researchers reported mutations in severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) Delta and Omicron variants of concern (VOCs) ...
Researchers have discovered new regions of the human genome particularly vulnerable to mutations. These altered stretches of DNA can be passed down to future generations and are important for how we ...
What Is the MTHFR Gene Mutation? The MTHFR gene mutation is a variation in the MTHFR gene. This gene normally tells your body how to make the MTHFR protein. You need this protein to process folate, ...
A single change in a key viral protein may have helped the coronavirus behind COVID-19 make the jump from animals to people, setting the virus on its way to becoming the scourge it is today. That ...
Prediction of lung cancer genotype noninvasively using droplet digital PCR (ddPCR) analysis of cell-free plasma DNA (cfDNA). Retrospective analysis of type of KRAS mutation (mut) and response to first ...
Plant mutation breeding, also called variation breeding, is a method that uses physical radiation or chemical means to induce spontaneous genetic variation in plants to develop new crop varieties.
