A fleeting DNA fold called i‑DNA can switch cancer‑related genes on and off, revealing a hidden structural weak point that ...

Scientists have discovered that a tiny protein linked to brain diseases may also play an unexpected role in skin cancer. The protein, called alpha-synuclein, has been studied for many years because of ...

Macquarie University researchers have discovered a naturally occurring protein found in human cells plays a powerful role in repairing damaged DNA—the molecule that carries the genetic instructions ...

In a new study, Yale Cancer Center researchers identified a novel genetic defect that prevents brain tumor cells from repairing damaged DNA. They found that the defect is highly sensitive to an ...

Researchers have found that a new base-editing gene therapy can help treat a rare neurodevelopmental disorder called Snijders ...
