Scientists at the University of Oregon uncovered a sex chromosome in the California two-spot octopus, dating back 480 million ...

It took more than 50 years for Marthe Gautier to set the record straight about her discovery of the genetic cause of Down ...

People with shorter telomeres, the protective caps at the end of chromosomes, inside their white blood cells may be more ...

This engineered genome will help experts tailor organisms to fit the needs of their ever-changing environments.

Sales of the firm's bispecific T-cell engager Blincyto increased more than 50 percent from the fourth quarter of 2023 to 2024.

A new study reveals that the maternal X chromosome may accelerate brain ageing and increase Alzheimer's risk. Experiments on female lab mice showed that older mice with only the maternal X ...

Older female mice show poor spatial memory when their paternal X chromosome is inactive and only the maternal copy is active. This phenomenon could be responsible for variation in age-related ...

But in every cell of their body, just one X chromosome is needed—so the other is randomly inactivated. Some cells use only a maternal X chromosome; others rely only on the paternal X.
