This post is a review of The Social Genome: The New Science Of Nature and Nurture. By Dalton Conley. W.W. Norton & Company. 292 pp. $29.99. A breakthrough in socio-genomics, the polygenic index (PGI) ...
Most genes are ancient and shared across species. But a small subset of genes are relative newcomers, spontaneously emerging from stretches of DNA that once encoded nothing at all. Now, after nearly a ...

No gene acts alone: interacting variants and protein partnerships can worsen, mask or even rescue disease risk, demanding ...
In earlier work, an MIT researcher who was not involved in this study had switched off each gene in that cell line, one at a time, and tracked how losing that gene changed genetic activity. Marson's ...
Researchers have deepened our understanding of two of the five members of the CDKL family of genes, CDKL2 and CDKL1. They show that variants in these genes can lead to neurodevelopmental conditions, ...
For decades, geneticists have known that most common illnesses are not caused by a single rogue gene but by intricate constellations of DNA variants acting together in specific cells. Now a new ...
"Although the details will be different in humans from what we find in rats, the study points the way towards understanding the mechanisms of how host and microbial genes work together to produce ...
Near the end of the classic 1942 movie Casablanca when Major Strasser is shot, Captain Renault famously pretends not to know who fired the gun and orders his officers to “round up the usual suspects.” ...
CDKL5, one of the five members of the CDKL family of genes, is important for proper neurodevelopment and associated with seizures. However, the role the other four members of this family play in ...
