The DNA damage from ionizing radiation (IR) erupting from the Chernobyl nuclear disaster of 1986 is showing up in the ...
A reanalysis of whole-genome data from 130 children conceived after the Chernobyl disaster has identified a statistically ...
KRAS is the most frequently mutated oncogene across all human cancers. Although different KRAS mutations have long been thought to exert the same cancer-driving effects, a new study led by UT ...
The search space for protein engineering grows exponentially with complexity. A protein of just 100 amino acids has 20100 ...
Nearly four decades after the 1986 Chernobyl disaster, scientists have identified subtle genetic mutation clusters in the children of exposed fathers. By focusing on radiation-specific mutation ...
Some genetic mutations that are expected to completely stop a gene from working surprisingly cause only mild or even no symptoms. Researchers in previous studies have discovered one reason why: cells ...
The prothrombin gene mutation increases your risk of severe blood clots. Medications, regular checkups, and healthy lifestyle habits can help reduce this risk. The prothrombin gene plays a crucial ...
