Researchers have changed the way to look at DNA. They show that DNA is much more than a linear sequence of building blocks; it has a 3D structure that influences the variation of human genome-wide ...

New whole-genome sequencing data reveals how strongly DNA shapes everyday traits, closing the long-standing gap in ...

Researchers discover unexpected patterns in mutation risks across individuals, uncovering 13 distinct genomic patterns. The study provides crucial insights into cancer evolution, identifying the genes ...

Using full genome sequencing data from more than 347,000 individuals, researchers quantified how much genetic differences explain human traits such as height, body mass index, fertility, and disease ...

Each cell in the body stores its genetic information in DNA in a stable and protected form that is readily accessible for the cell to carry on its activities. Nevertheless, mutations — changes in ...
