AlphaGenome can analyse up to 1m letters of DNA code at once and could pave way for new treatments ...

An international team of researchers including scientists from The Australian National University (ANU) have developed a way ...

It could transform our understanding of why diseases develop and the medicines needed to treat them, says researchers.

Mutations are changes in the molecular 'letters' that make up the DNA code, the blueprint for all living cells. Some of these changes can have little effect, but others can lead to diseases, including ...

Researchers at Monash University in Melbourne, Australia, have uncovered the hidden code governing how genetic mutations affect RNA splicing and result in disease. The researchers were able to ...

The tRNA, part of our genetic code, acts as a molecular messenger crucial for building proteins, which are essential for the body's structure and function, it said, adding a mutation in tRNA can ...

Euan Ashley's lab explores the intricate interactions of gene variants. Tiny "typos," or genetic mutations, can sneak into ...

Fourteen million people worldwide suffer from enlarged hearts, or hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM), a genetic disease that thickens the heart's walls, making it harder for the organ to pump blood - ...

Researchers in the RIKEN Center for Brain Science (CBS) examined the genetics of autism spectrum disorder (ASD) by analyzing mutations in the genomes of individuals and their families. They discovered ...

New research finds that retinal diseases thought to map one-to-one to genetic mutations are more complicated than that.
