The evolution of the MUC7 gene, which encodes a saliva protein, was studied by scientists at the University at Buffalo. To capture the gene’s proline-, threonine-, and serine-rich tandem repeat copy ...

“Such knowledge on physiological decline throughout pregnancy and the remarkable rejuvenation right after delivery will assist with revolutionizing our approach to treating the elderly.” “We ...

We learn that we inherit two copies of every gene, one from each of our parents, but the story is a bit more complex. Some parts of the genome may be duplicated, or deleted, in some people. The number ...

Copy number variation (CNV) refers to an increase or decrease in the number of copies of a DNA sequence in a genome, which can subsequently be implicit in promoting aberrant gene expression patterns ...

Accurate prediction of CYP2D6 activity from genotype data is of utmost importance as CYP2D6 pharmacogenetic (PGx) testing is increasingly used to guide drug therapy. However, given the complexity of ...
