Genetic variation underpins the diversity observed within and among species, while genomic analysis provides the framework to unravel the complexity of these variations. Advances in high‐throughput ...

In the complex landscape of mental health research, a new peer-reviewed Viewpoint review sheds light on an underexplored genetic player: the trace amine-associated receptor 1 (TAAR1). Published in ...

A graph-based computational tool for detecting previously invisible genetic mutations has been developed. Researchers at the University of California, Los Angeles (UCLA; USA) and the University of ...

Age, biological sex, and human genetic factors influence the production of antibodies during the immune response. A team of scientists from the Institut Pasteur, the CNRS and the Collège de France ...

Between any two people, there are likely to be at least 10 million differences in the genetic sequence that makes up their DNA. Most of these differences don't alter the way cells behave or cause ...

Targeted resequencing of DNA allows researchers to focus on genes of interest for cost-effective analysis of genetic variations. Typically, to analyze single nucleotide mutations and copy number ...

Scientists at UCLA and the University of Toronto have developed an advanced computational tool, called moPepGen, that helps identify previously invisible genetic mutations in proteins, unlocking new ...

Most research in human genetics has historically focused on people of European ancestries—a long-standing bias that may limit the accuracy of scientific predictions for people from other populations.

Scientists at UCLA and the University of Toronto have developed an advanced computational tool, called moPepGen, that helps identify previously invisible genetic mutations in proteins, unlocking new ...

With the publication of two papers in the journal Nature, hundreds of scientists have provided the most comprehensive picture to date of how variations in the human genome affect schizophrenia risk.
