Google DeepMind has unveiled a new artificial intelligence tool, AlphaGenome, aimed at helping scientists identify genetic changes that trigger diseases and accelerate the development of new ...

Genetic disorders can occur due to mutations in one gene (monogenic), multiple genes (multifactorial inheritance), and mutation in one or more chromosomes. Point mutations are where one nucleotide in ...

Study results indicate that mutation strength may shape both tumor–immune system interactions and immunotherapy response.

Scientists have created a complete map showing how hundreds of possible mutations in a key cancer gene influence tumour growth.

Scientists have created a complete map showing how hundreds of possible mutations in a key cancer gene influence tumor growth. The study focused on CTNNB1, a gene that produces the protein β-catenin, ...

While most known types of DNA damage are fixed by our cells’ in-house DNA repair mechanisms, some forms of DNA damage evade repair and can persist for many years, new research shows. This means that ...

In a big leap for genomics, Google on Wednesday unveiled a powerful AI model that predicts how single DNA mutations affect the complex machinery regulating gene activity. Named AlphaGenome, the tool ...

Model predicts effect of mutations on sequences up to 1 million base pairs in length and is adept at tackling complex ...

Using cortical organoids from individuals with autism, researchers tracked gene activity over development. Early ...

Characteristics of Clonal Hematopoiesis (CH) Mutations - a) We identified somatic mutations in known clonal hematopoiesis of indeterminate potential (CHIP) driver genes using peripheral blood ...

A man sits outside and holds a slim menthol cigarette between his fingers. Close-up with focus on the cigarette. The study provided a comprehensive examination of how lifestyle and environmental ...
