Mutation rates govern the introduction of genetic variation and influence evolutionary trajectories, disease susceptibility and species diversity. Rates are shaped by a balance between DNA damage, ...
Researchers at NYU Langone Health found that mice which were fed fewer calories developed fewer DNA mutations, providing the ...
In a study published in Current Biology on August 14, Prof. Miao Wei's team at the Institute of Hydrobiology (IHB) of the Chinese Academy of Sciences and Prof. Zhang Jianzhi's team at the University ...
A new technique, TF-High-Evolutionary (TF-HighEvo), allows large-scale assessment of de-novo mutations in multicellular organisms. Developed in collaboration with researchers from the European ...
Every time a cell divides, its chromosomes must be distributed correctly between the two daughter cells. Central to this process is the centromere, a specialized region of the chromosome. The ...
This mutation rate dictates how quickly species can adapt to changing environments. Supported by a combined $2.08 million in total NSF funding across partner institutions, the multi-institutional ...
A new study from deCODE genetics uses pedigrees and sequence data from 64,806 Icelanders to shed light on the rate and nature of mutations in mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) and the peculiar dynamics of its ...

A rare inherited mutation in the Epidermal Growth Factor Receptor (EGFR) gene is associated with a 25-fold increased risk of lung cancer, according to a study by investigators at Dana-Farber Cancer ...
