Less than a month after researchers unveiled that a “ticking DNA clock” is behind Huntington’s disease (HD), scientists have ...
A new study has discovered in mouse models that genes associated with repairing mismatched DNA are critical in eliciting damages to neurons that are most vulnerable in Huntington's disease and ...
A single gram of DNA can hold up to 215,000 terabytes of data, equivalent to 10 million hours of high-definition video. This storage density, combined with the long-term stability of DNA ...
Using CRISPR technology, scientists uncovered genes that control C-A-G genetic stumbles in Huntington's disease ...
This played a key role in mapping the HD gene (Gusella et al., 1983). Although researchers had discovered that the G8 DNA probe was likely to correspond to a polymorphic chromosomal region located ...
