Read moreCHK1- & CHK2-SNPs - Functional genetic polymorphisms (SNPs) in the human CHK1- and CHK2- gene for numerous pharmacogenetic appl
Enclosed are new, functionally relevant single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in regulatory sequences of the human checkpoint-kinase-1 & 2 (CHK1 & CHK2) genes, which play a central role in the contro...
Technology Offerings | Read moreTipping the balance of immune response
When the immune system encounters a potential threat, antigen-presenting cells deliver chunks of protein from the invading pathogen to naive helper T cells. These naive cells respond by differ...

Previous studies have identified several genetic variations in people with type 2 diabetes that affect how insulin is produced in the pancreas. Today's study shows for the first time a genetic va...
Life Sciences | Read moreVariants in 3 genes account for most dog coat differences
Variants in just three genes acting in different combinations account for the wide range of coat textures seen in dogs — from the poodle's tight curls to the beagle's stick-straight fur. A t...
Life Sciences | Read moreGene variations can be barometer of behavior, choices
Researchers at Brown University and the University of Arizona have determined that variations of three different genes in the brain (called single-nucleotide polymorphisms) may help predict a person’s...

A team led by researchers from the National Institutes of Health today reported the discovery of five genetic variants related to blood pressure in African-Americans, findings that may provide new clu...
Life Sciences | Read moreNew genetic study of Asperger syndrome, autistic traits and empathy
The research was led by Dr Bhismadev Chakrabarti and Professor Simon Baron-Cohen from the Autism Research Centre in Cambridge. 68 genes were chosen either because they were known to play a role in neu...
Life Sciences | Read moreNew Tools For Discovering DNA Variations In Crop Genomes
The study of human genetics has been a successful venture for researchers in recent years. Several million single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) have been identified from the whole-genome resequencin...

Using a combination of sensory, genetic, and in vitro approaches, researchers from the Monell Center confirm that the T1R1-T1R3 taste receptor plays a role in human umami (amino acid) taste. T...
Life Sciences | Read moreVariations in 5 genes raise risk for most common brain tumors
Common genetic variations spread across five genes raise a person's risk of developing the most frequent type of brain tumor, an international research team reports online in Nature Genetics....
Life Sciences | Read moreDNA variations linked to brain tumors
The study, conducted with different patient populations at each institution, looked for genome-wide associations using individual patient data and information in the Cancer Genome Atlas. Researchers f...
Life Sciences | Read moreGenetic finding could lead to targeted therapy for neuroblastoma
Two University of Florida scientists are part of the multicenter team of researchers that made the discovery, which could pave the way for better treatments that target the disease, according to findi...
Life Sciences | Read moreImmune genes adapt to parasites
The study, conducted by a team of researchers in Italy, also suggests that you might blame parasites for sculpting some of those genes into risk factors for intestinal disorders. Parasite-driv...
