Resistant cells demonstrated global decreases in DNA accessibility with localized opening at resistance-driving loci, indicating non-mutational epigenetic reprogramming rather than canonical oncogenic ...

Thus, the observation that familial small supernumerary marker chromosomes (sSMC) are predominantly inherited via the maternal line is substantiated by this analysis. However, an explanation still ...

Soft tissue sarcomas (STS) are rare mesenchymal neoplasms that frequently show complex chromosomal aberrations such as amplifications or deletions of DNA sequences or even whole chromosomes. We ...

In a recent study published in the journal Nature Communications, researchers performed a meta-analysis of 908,697 samples to investigate the genetic, sex-dependent basis of kidney traits. Study: ...

Researchers at the UCSF Ernest Gallo Clinic and Research Center have identified a region on the human genome that appears to determine how strongly drinkers feel the effects of alcohol and thus how ...

Athens, Ga. - Researchers in the University of Georgia's Regenerative Bioscience Center are visually capturing the first process of chromosome alignment and separation at the beginning of mouse ...

CHICAGO (AP) -- Researchers have identified a marker on the male chromosome that may partly explain why high blood pressure affects more men than women until middle age. The discovery supports the ...

The Y chromosome is inherited only through the paternal line. Sons receive their Y chromosome exclusively from their father.
