In humans, hundreds of proteins interact in a complex network dubbed the interactome. Those interactions are further complicated when disease-causing mutations are introduced into genes that code for ...

Researchers found a way to screen cancer-linked gene mutations much more easily and quickly than existing approaches, using a variant of CRISPR genome-editing known as prime editing. Tumors can carry ...

The androgen receptor is a key transcriptional factor for the proper sex development —specially in males— and the physiological balance of all the tissues that express this receptor. The androgen ...

Many people are familiar with histamine, a biological molecule that serves as a key driver of allergic reactions and other immune responses. However, histamine is also a major neurotransmitter in the ...

A new report found only about 2.8% of people with myelodysplastic syndromes (MDS) have JAK2 mutations. A new report is shining a light on an uncommon—but potentially meaningful—characteristic of some ...

Researchers at Gladstone Institutes have discovered that a rare genetic variant known as the "Christchurch mutation" can block detrimental effects of apolipoprotein E4, the best-established risk ...
