Study Reveals Genetic and Linguistic Roots of Indo-European Populations
A comprehensive study involving 91 researchers provides significant insights into the genetic and linguistic origins of Indo-European populations. It identifies two main migrations during the Bronze Age, with steppe ancestry spreading across Europe. The research also links specific populations like the Spanish, French, and Italian to Bell Beaker an...

Scientists Identify Gene Behind Orange Fur In Cats
After 60 years of research, scientists have discovered the gene responsible for orange fur in cats, finding that it is linked to a missing DNA segment that affects melanocyte-specific gene expression.

AI Unlocks “DNA Grammar” for Targeted Gene Editing, Enhancing Gene Therapy, and More
Researchers at The Jackson Laboratory, Broad Institute, and Yale University use AI to identify DNA sequences that control gene activation in specific cells. This AI model decodes patterns in DNA regions called cis-regulatory elements (CREs), guiding synthetic DNA switches for cell-specific gene activity. Early testing in animal models showed succes...

Scientists Identify 4 New Genes Linked With Breast Cancer, Most Variants Rare
Four new genes associated with breast cancer that may help identify women increased risk of the disease have been identified. However, these only explain a minority of the genetic risk.

Multi-Drug Resistant Bacterial Gene Found In Hospital Waste: University
Researchers at the Aligarh Muslim University (AMU) have identified a new variant of a multi-drug resistant bacterial gene in samples collected from sewage water discharge of a hospital in Murshidabad, West Bengal.

Autism-Linked Gene Mutation Reversed Using Lab-Grown Brain Experiment
The researchers studied the progress of tissues of the lab-grown brain and compared them against tissues from more typical TCF4 genes to identify the difference.

Researchers In Sweden Identify Gene Variant That Protects Against Covid
Researchers have identified a specific gene variant that protects against severe COVID-19 infection. An international team led by researchers at Karolinska Institutet in Sweden pinpointed the variant by studying people of different ancestries.

Gene That Increases Risk of Dying From Covid Now Identified
Polish scientists have discovered a gene that they say more than doubles the risk of falling severely ill with, or even dying from Covid-19.

More Severe Covid In Indian Subcontinent May Be Blamed On Gene: Study
Scientists identified a specific gene that doubles the risk of respiratory failure from Covid-19 and may go some way to explaining why some ethnic groups are more susceptible to severe disease than others.

Alzheimer's Disease And COVID-19 Share Genetic Risk Factor, Says UK Study
Scientists have identified a gene that impacts the risk of both Alzheimer's disease and severe COVID-19, a finding that could pave the way for new targets for drug development for both the diseases.

Scientists Unravel Mystery Behind Odisha's Rare, Endemic 'Black Tigers'
The enduring mystery behind the 'black tigers' of Similipal in Odisha may finally have been resolved with researchers identifying a single mutation in a gene that causes their distinctive stripes to broaden and spread into their tawny pelt.

Study Reveals Genetic Link Between Depression And Anxiety
The study highlights the link between mental health condition depression and anxiety. It has identified 509 genes that influence both depression and anxiety.

This Blood Test May Predict Onset Of Tuberculosis
Researchers at University College London sought to identify which, if any, gene expression signatures in blood could be used to predict tuberculosis at a very early stage and before symptoms.

New Approach Tested For Injecting Gene Therapy Vectors In Kidney
A mouse-experiment conducted by the researchers to better understand the ways to treat renal diseases has identified that before gene therapy is implemented to treat, targeted delivery of the therapeutic genes to the kidney should be the first necessary step.
