In genomes, three letters or bases of DNA encode an amino acid. Amino acids are then strung together by the cell to create proteins. There is some redundancy in that genetic code, but there are single ...
Relationship Among DNA Damage Response Gene Alterations, Molecular Subtypes, and Survival Outcomes in Patients With Metastatic Bladder Cancer Treated on CALGB 90601 Sequencing data from 56,965 ...

A comprehensive analysis of over 500,000 human protein variants reveals that 60% of disease-causing missense mutations reduce protein stability In a recent study published in Nature, researchers used ...
Most mutations that cause disease by swapping one amino acid out for another do so by making the protein less stable, according to a major study of human protein variants that was published in Nature ...
Cells have a carefully orchestrated mechanism consisting of several proteins to ensure healthy replication and division. One of the key players that participates in regulating tissue growth and repair ...
A study headed by researchers at the Centre for Genomic Regulation (CRG) in Barcelona has provided for the first time evidence that a single drug, already licensed for medical use, can stabilize ...
Unstable proteins are the main drivers of many different heritable diseases, according to a new study, including genetic disorders responsible for the formation of cataracts, and different types of ...
In mantle cell lymphoma (MCL), an aggressive form of B-cell non-Hodgkin lymphoma, TP53 mutations are known to affect patients’ prognosis—but questions remain. What does the heterogeneity of TP53 ...
