A major evolutionary theory says most genetic changes don’t really matter, but new evidence suggests that’s not true. Researchers found that helpful mutations happen surprisingly often. The twist is ...

A study in fruit flies suggests an internal genomic arms race may be driving rapid evolution in proteins that still perform an essential, unchanging job: protecting chromosome ends.

This study offers important insight into the pathogenic basis of intragenic frameshift deletions in the carboxy-terminal domain of MECP2, which account for some Rett syndrome cases, yet similar ...
