Comparative genomic hybridization (CGH) was developed to identify pathogenic DNA copy-number changes (e.g., duplications, deletions) on a genome-wide scale, and to map these changes to genomic ...

When bacteria cells replicate, they do so a little differently than human cells do. They don't undergo mitosis, a splitting that involves construction of spindles to carefully separate the DNA after ...

Research from the Stowers Institute provides evidence suggesting that cancer cells might streamline their genomes in order to proliferate more easily. The study, conducted in both human and mouse ...

DNA-folding nanorobots can manufacture limitless copies of themselves By Loz Blain December 08, 2023 Tiny nano-robots have been developed that can grab tiny snippets of DNA and assemble them into new ...

Mice show that DNA methylation tags can defy Mendel’s inheritance rules by appearing in offspring even when neither parent ...

Researchers have revealed the relationship between autophagy and polyploidy, the latter a phenomenon in which cells contain multiple copies of genetic material. In this regard, they have discovered a ...

Using SNP-CGH to Profile for Amplifications, Duplications, and Deletions The beginnings of personalized medicine have been forged by recent advances in SNP genotyping technologies. It is now possible ...

A study led by Dr. Jason Pitt, Principal Investigator at the Cancer Science Institute of Singapore (CSI Singapore), has identified eight new "signatures" of DNA patterns (gains and/or losses) in ...

Induction Nivolumab Before Chemoradiation in High-Risk Human Papillomavirus–Driven Oropharynx Cancers: IMMUNEBOOST-HPV, a Multicenter Randomized Phase II Trial TF was detectable in 75.4% of baseline ...
