Medicine & TechnologyChromosomes contain the DNA which holds the genetic material. A new study on Y chromosomes sheds light on why men suffer differently than women from diseases like COVID-19.
The overall health of astronauts is affected by alterations in the gut microbiome due to space's harsh conditions. Genes can also be altered, such as changes in bone structure and in the immune system.
In an attempt to figure out why individuals with a limited capacity to exercise behave the way they do, a team of researchers conducted a case study. After several tests, including genetic analysis, the scientists found that the mutated gene being examined "was the von Hippel-Lindau (VHL) gene."
A group of reserachers discovered a gene silencing process that help with effictive and efficient delivery of genes. This process, made effective by a gold DNA nanosunflower, can help cure HIV, infertility and even cancer.
Researchers discovered that Asians included those with a disappropriate danger of developing blastomycosis infections relative to other groups in the U.S. and they ruled out recreation and gardening practices
The team set up conditions so that the only mutant genes to thrive are the ones encoding proteins capable of accomplishing the desired function within the cells including activating a particular receptor or switching on specific genes
Genetic changes that increase the number or activity of the respective gene products are more capable of protecting bacteria from the effect of plasma treatment
