As language models learn to interpret words in a sentence, protein language models learn how amino acids work together within ...

New research challenges the long-standing idea that most fixed genetic mutations are neutral. For many years, scientists studying evolution have believed that most genetic changes influencing how ...

For a long time, evolutionary biologists have thought that the genetic mutations that drive the evolution of genes and ...

Researchers at Baylor College of Medicine have discovered that certain p53 mutants hijack the DNA replication machinery ...

Mice pups conceived with in vitro fertilization (IVF) in the lab have slightly increased rates of DNA errors, or mutations, ...

Mutations have conventionally been categorized as either those arising in the germline or somatic mutations acquired during life. Deleterious germline mutations usually lead to conditions that ...

Analysis of a real-world database showed that an EGFR exon 20 mutation occurred in fewer than 17% of patients with non-squamous NSCLC. Of patients with the mutation, fewer than 1% had an EGFR exon ...

Increased plaque forming capability of N protein mutant viruses carrying either S202R or R203M mutations A recent paper by Syed et al. demonstrates that mutations in the Nucleocapsid (N) protein, one ...

EGFR-positive lung cancer is a type of non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). It can cause symptoms such as breathing problems and hoarseness. Therapy that targets the mutation, such as EGFR inhibitors, ...
