A study reveals that the immune protein IFITM3 limits flu infection severity and mutation rates, especially from zoonotic ...

For instance, mice with Flvcr1 gene knockouts had severe bone and blood ... On one hand, we had a patient with a rare FLVCR1 ...

Under this two-hit model, Brugge says, one normal copy of BRCA1 ought to be able to carry out DNA repair even when the other ...

Researchers have identified a protein, TMEM16F, that appears to aid the spread of Parkinson’s pathology in the brain.

Engineered polymers interfere with protein interactions to protect cell health in a mouse study. Researchers at Northwestern University and Case Western Reserve University have developed the first ...

The team then used lab techniques to mimic repeated transmission of a human-origin virus in mice, testing the protein's role ...

With millions of mice and rats in US labs alone, scientists can learn a lot of information from their scurrying test subjects. These animals may be small, but their contribution to current research is ...

A new study in mice explains how even a single faulty copy of the BRCA1 gene can fuel tumor growth. The findings suggest the dominant “two-hit” hypothesis of cancer development may not tell the full ...

Learn how researchers cracked a genetic mystery, diagnosing undiagnosed diseases by identifying FLVCR1 mutations.
