Mutations in the tumor suppressor TP53 are a common cause of cancer, making the altered protein an attractive target for ...
For 10% of colorectal cancer patients, hereditary factors play a role, with higher percentages among younger patients.
A newly identified and rare genetic variant slows the growth of mutated blood stem cells and reduces the risk of leukemia.

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 ...
A new study headed by teams at the Wellcome Sanger Institute, EMBL’s European Bioinformatics Institute (EMBL-EBI), and Open Targets has indicated how mutations that cause cancer drug resistance fall ...
