A new study headed by teams at the Wellcome Sanger Institute, EMBL’s European Bioinformatics Institute (EMBL-EBI), and Open Targets has indicated how mutations that cause cancer drug resistance fall ...
Although previously thought to be neutral, research in yeast suggests that synonymous point mutations may have strongly nonneutral effects. A group of researchers from the University of Michigan (MI, ...
A new single-cell profiling technique has mapped pre-malignant gene mutations and their effects in solid tissues for the ...
Some genome editing systems are highly conspicuous. They introduce double-strand breaks to DNA that attract the attention of cellular mechanisms such as nonhomologous end joining and homology-directed ...
Tumors can carry mutations in hundreds of different genes, and each of those genes may be mutated in different ways - some mutations simply replace one DNA nucleotide with another, while others insert ...
