With a rate of mutation 35 percent higher than random chance, this previously unknown weakness could be a major vector for ...

Unique mutations in the H5N1 strain enhance replication in human cells and cause severe disease in mice. The virus has spread from birds to mammals, including dairy cows, and infected humans, with one ...

Scientists at the Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai have developed a novel artificial intelligence tool that not only ...

A new study reports that the locations where genes begin are particularly prone to mutations, and these genetic changes can ...

Investigations suggest V2P may be efficiently applied for the automated identification of causal variants in simulated and actual patient sequencing data across phenotypes.

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 ...

During development of the digestive system, a complex network of nerves forms around it, creating a "second brain"—the ...
