Researchers have created the first complete map showing how hundreds of mutations in a key cancer gene affect tumor growth.

The William H. Foege Genome Sciences Building at the University of Washington School of Medicine in Seattle contains laboratories, sequencers, computational facilities, and other resources for ...

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 from deCODE genetics uses pedigrees and sequence data from 64,806 Icelanders to shed light on the rate and nature of mutations in mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) and the peculiar dynamics of its ...

Retrospective study of fluoropyrimidine chemotherapy dosing and toxicity in patients with screen-detected deleterious DPYD gene variants. Real-world treatment patterns, healthcare resource utilization ...

After an allogeneic stem cell transplant, a recipient’s body faces a daunting task: rebuilding the person’s blood-forming and immune systems from the ground up from a relatively small number of “seed” ...

For a long time, evolutionary biologists have thought that the genetic mutations that drive the evolution of genes and proteins are largely neutral: they're neither good nor bad, but just ordinary ...

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 ...
