Scientists discovered a new gene family on the Y chromosome of deer mice, challenging the belief that the chromosome only ...
The study, published in Volume 153, Issue 9 of the journal Development on May 14, 2026, by The Company of Biologists, is the ...
A study, published in the journal Development, is the first to precisely map endogenous UTY occupancy across the human genome ...
Cells that acquire a doubled genome after a failed division step survive and proliferate far more effectively than cells left ...
A study led by bioengineers at the University of California San Diego sheds new light on how a type of heart valve disease, called aortic valve stenosis, progresses differently in males and females.
New research tracks how cells prepare gene regulatory decisions that will define their fate during the earliest stages of ...
Researchers at the Francis Crick Institute studying male mice engineered with different Y chromosome deletions have uncovered which genes on the mouse Y chromosome regulate the development of sperm ...
Humans have 23 pairs of chromosomes, including a pair of sex chromosomes (typically XX for females, and XY for males). Chromosomes contain hundreds to thousands of genes, which are sections of DNA ...
The humble Y chromosome may be the smallest chromosome in the mammalian genome (and getting even smaller), but it is mighty: ...
Scientists in Japan have developed a rat-mouse hybrid embryo from a single frozen rat chromosome transplanted into a mouse ...
Translocations are chromosomal “cut and paste” errors that drive many lymphomas, a type of blood cancer and the sixth most common form of cancer overall. This includes mantle cell lymphoma, a rare but ...
