Changes in genes have been linked to the development of different diseases for a while. However, it's not exactly clear what ...

Chromosomal instability plays a crucial role in the progression of cancer: it shapes the properties of tumor cells and drives the development of therapy resistance. Scientists used state-of-the-art ...

A research team at The University of Osaka revealed that the loss of heterochromatin can cause a chain reaction leading to ...

Researchers from The University of Osaka reveal that genetic changes following the loss of heterochromatin can lead to ...

Translocations, in genetics, happen when chromosomes break and the pieces attach to other chromosomes. This mixing of genetic material has important results. The resultant chromosomes are lacking in ...

New research finds an unexpected link between chromosomal instability and epigenetic alternations, both of which are hallmarks of cancer -- especially advanced, drug-resistant cancers. A graduate ...

A new discovery by researchers at the RIKEN Center for Biosystems Dynamics (BDR) in Japan upends decades of assumptions regarding DNA replication. Led by Ichiro Hiratani and colleagues, the ...
