Of course, different genetic systems react differently to such events. Finally, still other sources of mutations are the many different types of transposable elements, which are small entities of ...

All cancer mutations that cause drug resistance fall into one of four categories. New research has detailed each type, helping to uncover targets for drug development and identify potential effective ...

Researchers obtain detailed picture of the specific mechanisms by which each individual mutation studied impacts drug response.

Scientists have discovered that certain changes in the DNA of cells, known as mutations, like the IDH mutation, can act as ...

Scientists have now discovered why a genetic mutation in a gene called TET2 is often implicated in disorders including ...

A new study has punctured a longstanding assumption about the source of the most common type of DNA mutation seen in the genome--one that contributes to many genetic diseases, including cancer.

Hypopituitarism can be caused by mutations in a gene called Sox3. Scientists have now found that ... and removal of functional Sox3 protein reduced the level of a certain cell type called NG2 glia.

Up to half of patients showed significant improvement in study results presented at the American Academy of Ophthalmology ...

Other genetic mutations happen as a natural part of aging, and some happen after exposure to substances that cause damage to your DNA. The types of genetic mutations are complicated because ...

A Ludwig Cancer Research study has punctured a longstanding assumption about the source of the most common type of DNA ...
