A University of Massachusetts Amherst scientist has discovered that a mutation in the misfolding protein that causes Parkinson’s disease offers protection against another fatal neurodegenerative ...
No gene acts alone: interacting variants and protein partnerships can worsen, mask or even rescue disease risk, demanding ...
Dr Mark Kris discusses the increasing precision of lung cancer therapies and the need for additional testing to find ...
Scientists have long known that inherited neurodegenerative disorders, including Alzheimer's, Parkinson's or motor neuron ...
Mutations in the tumor suppressor TP53 are a common cause of cancer, making the altered protein an attractive target for ...
The functioning of neurons, cells that transmit information in the nervous system, heavily relies on the production of ...
In humans, hundreds of proteins interact in a complex network dubbed the interactome. Those interactions are further complicated when disease-causing mutations are introduced into genes that code for ...
A study led by Aaron Hobbs, Ph.D., and Rachel Burge, Ph.D., at MUSC Hollings Cancer Center, reveals why a specific gene ...
Mutations in genes that form the desmosome are the most common cause of the cardiac disease arrhythmogenic cardiomyopathy (ACM), which affects one in 2000 to 5000 people worldwide. Researchers have ...
In a recent study posted to the bioRxiv* preprint server, researchers assessed the effects of N501Y mutation of severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) spike (S) protein on ...
