Researchers have identified two gene regions that contribute to multiple myeloma, an inherited cancer that occurs in bone marrow, through a new method that makes use of human disease pedigrees.
It is shown that the method of Heuch and Li for recursive calculation of conditional genotype probabilities in pedigrees also applies to joint phenotype probability calculations. This procedure was ...
MENLO PARK, Calif., Aug. 04, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- PacBio (PACB), a leading provider of high-quality, highly accurate sequencing platforms, today announced the results of a study published in ...
A combination of human pedigree analysis and fruit fly genetics has identified a gene variant that appears to prevent PIGA-CDG, a rare but serious seizure disorder. The findings could ultimately lead ...
Describe the basic principle of mitosis (why do cells undergo mitosis?). Diagram how an exact replica of the genetic material is made, including the numbers of chromosomes present at each phase of ...
Imprinting effects can lead to parent-of-origin patterns in complex human diseases. For a diallelic marker locus, Pedigree Parental-Asymmetry Test (PPAT) and its extension MCPPAT using pedigrees ...
