Gene Mutation

The study showed that people without the SI gene may have a hard time digesting sugary foods, making them dislike it.

Neurodevelopmental and psychiatric diseases (NPD), such as schizophrenia, bipolar disorder, autism, and depression, have a negative impact on individuals, families, and society. Unfortunately, effective therapies are often lacking.

Brothers Michael, aged 6, and Oliver, aged 2 both living in Washington were diagnosed with 'Type 2 Battens' disease in April and May, respectively.

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.

There is no evidence to suggest that existing vaccines do not work on Omicron variant of coronavirus, though some of the mutations reported on spike gene may decrease the efficacy of existing vaccines, the Rajya Sabha was informed on Tuesday.

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.

Variation in a genetic mutation among Indians may be the main reason behind the difference in the death rates due to COVID-19 across various states of the country, says a study that could inform new policies for controlling the novel coronavirus pandemic.

A rare genetic mutation that causes a form of muscular dystrophy affecting the limbs also protects against HIV infection, Spanish scientists reported Thursday.

According to researchers, many of these genes are likely important in human vision and the results could help identify new causes of hereditary blindness in patients.

Autism spectrum disorder is a condition which is related to brain development that impacts how a person interacts with others, perceives and socializes with others, causing problems in social interaction and communication.

Patients with the sickle cell disease have a single mutation in the gene that encodes hemoglobin, the protein that allows red blood cells to carry oxygen.

Genetics and cancer: With the help of data which was available publically, researchers have been able to identify 10 new genes which are predisposed to ovarian and breast cancer among others.

Starting in the next month or so, the Pennsylvania-based system will offer DNA sequencing to 1,000 patients, with the goal to eventually extend the offer to all 3 million Geisinger patients.

This can offer new treatment techniques to fight obesity.

Scientists have identified a genetic mutation - found in an Indiana Amish family - that may extend life by up to ten years, and are now testing an experimental "longevity" drug that recreates the effect.
