The findings represent the oldest complete set of genetic information from this bacterial group and shed light on its ...

Researchers led by the University of Vienna and Liège University Hospital Center have identified genetic variants associated ...

Euan Ashley's lab explores the intricate interactions of gene variants. Tiny "typos," or genetic mutations, can sneak into ...

The Human Domainome 1—the largest library of human protein variants—reveals the cause of certain genetic disorders, paving the way for personalized medicines. “We measured every possible mutation in ...

Despite the development of cutting-edge genetic testing techniques and considerable progress in our understanding of the genetic basis of idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF), missing heritability and ...

Many genetic variants linked to inherited eye disorders rarely lead to disease, meaning up to 2% of people could carry these variants without ever developing vision problems, according to a new s tudy ...

Unstable proteins are the main drivers of many different heritable diseases, according to a new study, including genetic disorders responsible for the formation of cataracts, and different types of ...

Viral DNA that is usually dismissed when sequencing the human genome could help to uncover useful information about complex ...

Humans have been getting infected by ancient bacteria and viruses for at least 37,000 years. Now, for the first time, pathogen DNA has uncovered a pivotal disease "turning point" that happened 6,500 ...

A newly developed AI can predict which diseases specific genetic mutations are likely to cause, not just whether they are harmful. The breakthrough could speed up diagnoses and open new paths for ...

Research co-led by King's College London and Sidra Medicine, Qatar, has produced the most detailed map to date of large-scale ...
