Genomic structural variants (SVs) involve the rearrangement of DNA sequences and have the potential to drive phenotypic changes across the tree of life. The discovery of structural variation dates ...

Research co-led by King's College London and Sidra Medicine, Qatar, has produced the most detailed map to date of large-scale ...

A substantial chromosomal inversion in the DG1 promoter upregulates its expression. It gives rise to a double-grain spikelet trait remarkably augmenting the grain number and yield in sorghum and ...

Chong’s study, “Deciphering the exact breakpoints of structural variations using long sequencing reads with DeBreak,” was recently published in Nature Communications. UAB researchers have developed a ...

Researchers still do not have a comprehensive picture of the factors that influence gene expression in human cancers. Understanding gene expression in cancer is important because it can reveal how the ...

The most complex engineering of human cell lines ever has been achieved by scientists, revealing that our genomes are more resilient to significant structural changes than was previously thought. The ...

Genome assemblies from 65 individuals, representing a variety of the world’s populations, are advancing the scientific exploration of complex genetic structural variation. Structural variations are ...

The most complex engineering of human cell lines ever has been achieved by scientists, revealing that our genomes are more resilient to significant structural changes than was previously thought.

Researchers have identified crucial structural variations that determine seed size and weight in peanuts, paving the way for the development of higher-yielding crop varieties. Researchers from ...
