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

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

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

A new study published in Science is challenging long-held assumptions about how we measure genetic risk in endangered species. Researchers analyzed whole genomes from hundreds of koalas, finding that ...

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

COVID vaccines saved millions of lives, but months into the rollout, a small number of people began developing dangerous ...

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.

By utilizing long-read sequencing, an emerging technique that reads large sections of the genome at once, scientists at UC San Diego have revealed new genetic variants associated with autism spectrum ...

Researchers at Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center (MSK) have made an important discovery about how genetic mutations in breast cancer patients can interact and drive resistance to certain drugs ...

The FDA proposes new rules allowing mutation-specific gene therapies to qualify for approval despite extremely small patient ...
