Study sheds light on the origin of the genetic code | ScienceDaily
Nearly all living organisms use the same genetic code, a complicated mechanism by which genetic information is translated into proteins, the building blocks of life. A new study suggests conventional wisdom about how the code evolved is likely flawed.
Completing the 'timetree' of primates: A new way to map the evolutionary history of life on Earth
In a new article published in Frontiers in Bioinformatics, biologists Dr. Jack M Craig, Dr. Blair Hedges, and Dr. Sudhir Kumar, all at Temple University, have built an evolutionary tree that encompasses 455 primates, every species for which genetic data are available. The tree, the most complete of its kind, shows the evolutionary timescale of the whole order of primates, including monkeys, apes, lemurs, lorises, and galagos.
TSLPR CAR T-cell therapy: A new hope for CRLF2+ ALL, but timing of JAK inhibition is crucial | Research Communities by Springer Nature
Acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) with CRLF2 rearrangements in Ph-like and Down syndrome-associated ALL subtypes poses a significant challenge in pediatric oncology. These genetic abnormalities lead to constitutive signaling activation and induce resistance to conventional chemotherapy.
Rapid evolution: African clawed frog sex determination challenges prevailing theory
Researchers at McMaster University have uncovered unexpected diversity in the genetic processes that determine the sex of the African clawed frog, a significant discovery in what was already one of the most widely studied amphibians in the world.
Sea snakes regain advanced color vision, recovering a complex trait once lost to evolutionary time
Nine species of sea snakes have now been identified as having regained the genetic requirements for advanced color vision, demonstrating that once a complex trait has been lost to evolutionary time, it may be regained in some way.
