Abstract Somatic mutations drive the development of cancer and may contribute to ageing and other diseases1,2. Despite their importance, the difficulty of detecting mutations that
For the first time, researchers report the use of the mutagenic chemical N-ethyl-N-nitrosourea (ENU) to conduct a genetic screen in pigs. The data reveal mutations
The Maternal Embryonic Leucine Zipper Kinase (MELK) has been reported to be a genetic dependency in several cancer types. MELK RNAi and small-molecule inhibitors of
A new genetic-editing technique based on integratingCRISPR/Cas9 technology into a Drosophila melanogaster genome can make homozygous mutants in half the time it would take using
