Researchers at Monash University in Melbourne, Australia, have uncovered the hidden code governing how genetic mutations affect RNA splicing and result in disease. The researchers were able to ...

In genomes, three letters or bases of DNA encode an amino acid. Amino acids are then strung together by the cell to create proteins. There is some redundancy in that genetic code, but there are single ...

We are now in the second great wave of the genetic revolution, not defined by reading the human code of life, but by rewriting it.

A Mayo Clinic-led team of researchers is solving one of the most frustrating aspects of genetic cancer screening — results that give zero guidance to patients on whether they are at elevated risk.

Boston biotech Beam Therapeutics has announced initial data from a phase 1/2 trial of its gene therapy for a genetic lung and liver disease, with no serious adverse events reported among the nine ...
