May 12, 2023 —Scientists have precisely identified base pairs of the human genome that remained consistent over millions of years of mammalian evolution, and which play a crucial role in human disease. The team ...
Jan. 23, 2023 —Many life-saving drugs directly interact with DNA to treat diseases such as cancer, but scientists have struggled to detect how and why they work -- until ...
July 8, 2021 —Using single cell technology, a new study sheds light on the significance of genetic risk factors for, and the diversity of cells involved in, the development of coronary artery disease. The ...
Feb. 25, 2021 —20 years after the successful completion of the Human Genome Project', an international research group has now sequenced 64 human genomes at high resolution. This reference data includes ...
Aug. 24, 2022 —Thousands of short RNA sequences that code for microproteins and peptides have been identified, opening new avenues for disease research and drug ...
Mar. 31, 2022 —Scientists have published the first complete, gapless sequence of a human genome, two decades after the Human Genome Project produced the first draft human genome sequence. According to researchers, ...
Feb. 24, 2022 —Researchers have discovered a new type of stem cell that resembles cells in the early human embryo during the transition of 'genomic power' from mother to embryo. During this major ...
