Researchers discovered that a tiny structural feature of the enzyme GPX4 helps keep neurons safe. A rare mutation removes this protection, allowing harmful molecules to damage cell membranes and ...

Research links variations in the gene GRIN2A to a higher risk of developing schizophrenia and other forms of mental illness. The GRIN2A gene regulates communication between neurons by producing the ...

Researchers have discovered new regions of the human genome particularly vulnerable to mutations. These altered stretches of DNA can be passed down to future generations and are important for how we ...

Tatiana Schlossberg, the youngest granddaughter of President John F. Kennedy, recently revealed she was diagnosed with terminal acute myeloid leukemia (AML) due to a rare genetic anomaly. In a ...

The Mutation Machine is a way to combine Plants and Brainrots in Plants Vs Brainrots. Instead of fusing Brainrots to find new ones with the Fusion Machine, we can now combine mutations. This is a cool ...

The gene p53 acts as a tumor suppressor and often is called the ‘guardian of the genome.’ This gene is central to maintaining genomic stability, which prevents mutations from accumulating and leading ...

Human semen not only accumulates genetic mutations with age; as the percentage of sperm carrying potentially serious mutations increases, so does the risk of developing diseases in offspring. This is ...

While men may be able to have children much later than women, doing so could come with an increased risk of inherited disease for their children. Researchers from the Wellcome Sanger Institute have ...

The risk of older fathers passing on disease-causing mutations to their children is higher than we thought. Genome sequencing has revealed that among men in their early thirties, around 1 in 50 sperm ...

Somiya Adrees is a writer at GameRant. Her gaming journey began at a young age with classics like Super Mario Bros., Sonic the Hedgehog, and Disney's Aladdin in Nasira's Revenge (all of which she ...

Researchers at Baylor College of Medicine have developed an artificial intelligence (AI) model that reveals how protein modifications link genetic mutations to disease. The method, called DeepMVP and ...

Human eggs appear to be protected against a certain type of age-related mutation. In a small study, researchers found no signs that mutations accumulate in the mitochondrial DNA of human egg cells as ...
