Scientists have identified hundreds of genes that may increase the risk of developing Alzheimer's disease but the roles these ...
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 ...

Martin Kampmann’s work, supported by the National Institutes of Science (NIH), maps cellular “decision points” that determine ...
Findings suggest that new genes can form by repurposing fragments of ancestral genes while incorporating entirely new coding regions (the protein-coding parts of the DNA). This innovative concept ...
