Transcriptome sequencing demonstrated that most mutations also arose in genes that were minimally expressed in the mutated allele-bearing tumor and minimally expressed in the other tumors that lacked ...

Chromosomal translocations occur in leukemias, lymphomas, sarcomas and some epithelial tumors and some generate unique fusion proteins. These translocation products may provide tumor-specific targets ...

Researchers at a lab in Kansas City believe they have made a breakthrough discovery in understanding infertility.

Translocations are chromosomal “cut and paste” errors that drive many lymphomas, a type of blood cancer and the sixth most common form of cancer overall. This includes mantle cell lymphoma, a rare but ...

Scientists found six sex chromosomes in the Odorrana swinhoana frog species endemic in Taiwan, giving new insights into how complex XY systems evolve. The finding suggested that translocation -- a ...

DOWNTOWN LOS ANGELES - Researchers at the USC Keck School of Medicine have explained how certain key mutations occur in human lymphomas - a process that has, until now, remained a mystery. The ...

By examining “junk DNA,” scientists are finding clues to understanding human biology.
