Circulating tumor DNA (ctDNA), small pieces of DNA released from dying tumor cells into the bloodstream, can be easily and non-invasively identified and examined through a simple blood test. This ...
Bowel cancer cells have the ability to regulate their growth using a genetic on-off switch to maximize their chances of survival, a phenomenon that's been observed for the first time by researchers at ...
Artistic conceptualization of chromosomal DNA breakdown, extrachromosomal DNA and circular DNA. Circular DNA can drive resistance to therapy in bladder cancer. Disclaimer: AAAS and EurekAlert! are not ...
(Top) Point mutations (red star) in the DNA give rise to mutant mRNA and polypeptides that either misfold and are degraded—resulting in loss‐of‐function—or evade quality control to form toxic ...
A new study has punctured a longstanding assumption about the source of the most common type of DNA mutation seen in the genome--one that contributes to many genetic diseases, including cancer. A ...
Only around two percent of the human genome codes for proteins, and while those proteins carry out many important functions of the cell, the rest of the genome cannot be ignored. However, for decades ...
Current genetic sequencing techniques can provide much information about the genetic makeup and activity in a sample, like a piece of tissue or a drop of blood. But they are unable to reveal where ...
From Tama, Japan's most famous stationmaster calico cat, to the lasagna-loving, ginger Garfield, cats with orange fur are both cultural icons and beloved pets. But their distinctive color comes with a ...
