Researchers discover unexpected patterns in mutation risks across individuals, uncovering 13 distinct genomic patterns. The study provides crucial insights into cancer evolution, identifying the genes ...

In the depths of the ocean, where there’s no sunlight and the pressure could crush a submarine, a handful of animals have quietly rewritten their DNA to withstand these conditions. According to a new ...

A new wave of scientists argues that mainstream evolutionary theory needs an urgent overhaul. Their opponents have dismissed them as misguided careerists – and the conflict may determine the future of ...

EVOFLUx uses DNA methylation fluctuations as molecular barcodes to trace tumor evolution, offering insights into growth, treatment resistance, and prognosis. The method requires only bulk methylation ...

How bladder cancer originates and progresses has been illuminated as never before. Researchers found that antiviral enzymes that mutate the DNA of normal and cancer cells are key promoters of early ...

A newly discovered genetic mutation unique to humans may help explain why we are significantly more vulnerable to cancer than our closest evolutionary relatives. Researchers at the University of ...

The secret to the naked mole-rats' extraordinarily long life may lie in subtle changes to just four amino acids, researchers report. According to a new study, evolutionary mutations in cGAS – an ...

Mitochondria are well known as the powerhouses of the cell because of their energy generating capabilities. These little organelles are very special, because they also carry their own tiny little ...
