Open AccessDNA and RNA base editors can correct the majority of pathogenic single nucleotide variants
The majority of human genetic diseases are caused by single nucleotide variants (SNVs) in the genome sequence. Excitingly, new genomic techniques known as base editing have opened efficient pathways to correct...

The Product Guides the Process: Discovering Disease Mechanisms
The nature of the product to be discovered guides the reasoning to discover it. Biologists and medical researchers often search for mechanisms. The “new mechanistic philosophy of science” provides resources ab...

Open AccessInsights from GWAS: emerging landscape of mechanisms underlying complex trait disease
There are now over 2000 loci in the human genome where genome wide association studies (GWAS) have found one or more SNPs to be associated with altered risk of a complex trait disease. At each of these loci, t...

Open AccessTracing the origin of functional and conserved domains in the human proteome: implications for protein evolution at the modular level
The functional repertoire of the human proteome is an incremental collection of functions accomplished by protein domains evolved along the Homo sapiens lineage. Therefore, knowledge on the origin of these functi...
