A systematic review of 52 scientific papers submitted to a world-leading clinical genetics journal from multiple scientists ...

Researchers use long-read genome sequencing to discover 33% more structural variants and 38% more tandem repeats linked to autism spectrum disorder.

Hereditary ATTR-CM can run in families. Learn who may be at risk, when genetic testing is recommended, the benefits of screening, and how to talk with relatives.

Cancer begins when mutations in specific genes override the body’s built-in controls on cell division, allowing rogue cells ...

Human cells usually contain two copies of most genes, one of which comes from the mother while the other comes from the father. It's long been thought that usually these two copies, or alleles of ...

Researchers at the University of California San Diego have identified new genetic variants associated with autism spectrum ...

Mayo Clinic researchers have identified a rare mutation in the MET gene that can directly cause metabolic dysfunction-associated steatotic liver disease. The mutation disrupts the liver’s ability to ...

A new method for safely inserting large chunks of DNA into genomes has now measured up in mice, potentially paving the way ...

RNA therapeutics target translation rather than DNA, aiming to correct shared protein production errors. By enabling cells to read through premature stop codons, engineered tRNAs could restore ...

Breast cancer is the most common cancer among women, making up 30% of all new cases each year. Knowledge is power when it comes to detection and prevention of this disease: Genetic testing can play an ...
