Ultimately, this means that there are more genetic differences between individual ... Cell-type-specific consequences of mosaic structural variants in hematopoietic stem and progenitor cells ...

The study highlights that we are all mosaics. Even so-called normal cells carry all sorts of genetic mutations. Ultimately, ...

Certain developmental signals shape not only the human embryo but also play a significant role in maintaining our genetic blueprints. They prevent alterations in the genome, known as mosaicism.

This is called genetic mosaicism, when it’s not always the same chromosome. In most cases, you’d never notice—but when the genes determine something like fur color, it stands out.

A new UC Davis MIND Institute study offers critical insights into Rett syndrome, a rare genetic condition that affects mostly ...

The study analyzed PVs in the HRAS or KRAS gene. "A special feature of mosaic RASopathies is that they are disorders that only develop in the embryo during embryonic development. PVs can occur at ...

Researchers have wondered how an alligator-size arthropod lived more than 300 million years ago. The discovery of an intact ...
