Study results indicate that mutation strength may shape both tumor–immune system interactions and immunotherapy response.

Genetic disorders can occur due to mutations in one gene (monogenic), multiple genes (multifactorial inheritance), and mutation in one or more chromosomes. Point mutations are where one nucleotide in ...

Scientists have created a complete map showing how hundreds of possible mutations in a key cancer gene influence tumour growth.

Scientists have created a complete map showing how hundreds of possible mutations in a key cancer gene influence tumor growth. The study focused on CTNNB1, a gene that produces the protein β-catenin, ...
