The researchers noted that most genomic analyses have traditionally focused on commonly mutated genes, which can pinpoint mutations occurring most frequently but does not account for the extent to ...

Carlsberg has developed a method using digital PCR to identify specific nucleotide mutations in mutated genes. The process involves random mutagenesis, dividing organisms into sub-pools, PCR ...

Stanford Medicine researchers sifted through thousands of single nucleotide mutations in DNA to identify fewer than 400 that are functionally associated with inherited cancer risk. Thousands of single ...

Recent research from the lab of Dr. Nicolas Lehrbach, an Assistant Professor in the Basic Sciences Division at Fred Hutch, discovered that altering nucleotide metabolism may bypass proteasome defects ...

Using sequencing instruments from multiple vendors, scientists from the University of Utah Health, the University of Washington, PacBio, and elsewhere have developed what they claim is the most ...

A new study headed by teams at the Wellcome Sanger Institute, EMBL’s European Bioinformatics Institute (EMBL-EBI), and Open Targets has indicated how mutations that cause cancer drug resistance fall ...

Mice pups conceived with in vitro fertilization (IVF) in the lab have slightly increased rates of DNA errors, or mutations, compared to pups conceived naturally, a new study on artificial reproductive ...

This module is a replica of a strand of DNA for eye color using light patterns controlled by an Arduino. The four light colors, red, green, blue, and yellow, represent the four nucleotide base pairs, ...

Molnupiravir, an antiviral drug used to treat patients with COVID-19, appears to be driving SARS-CoV-2 to mutate and evolve, with some of these new viruses being transmitted onwards, a new study has ...
