This important study introduces a new biology-informed strategy for deep learning models aiming to predict mutational effects in antibody sequences. It provides solid evidence that separating ...

Experiments on an ultra-rare genetic mutation that causes neurodegeneration in children have helped uncover a new mechanism by which brain cells die. A team led by scientists at the German research ...

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 ...

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 ...

Scientists have identified mutations in the CPD gene as a key cause of a rare congenital hearing loss, revealing how disruptions in arginine and nitric oxide signaling damage sensory cells in the ear.

HINXTON, England — At first glance, the news sounds reassuring: sperm cells accumulate genetic mutations eight times slower than blood cells, making them among the most protected cells in the male ...

A new approach to gene therapy for retinitis pigmentosa may help patients with advanced disease regain vision regardless of which genetic mutation is causing the condition. An optogenetic therapy ...
