Researchers have made a surprising new discovery in the structure of the centromere, a structure that is involved in ensuring that chromosomes are segregated properly when a cell divides. Mistakes in ...
Highly challenging to sequence and long overlooked, the human Y chromosome’s contributions to health and disease remain largely unknown. A new paper that presents, for the first time, the complete ...
New insights into the Y chromosome, including its role in disease, should flow from the complete DNA sequencing data now achieved by two international research teams. Although it is commonly reported ...
Analyzing genetic data from nearly 140,000 IVF embryos, researchers linked maternal DNA variants to increased risk of ...
