The binding of such mutants is influenced by whether TP53 (encoding p53) codon 72, by virtue of a common polymorphism in the human population, encodes Arg or Pro. The ability of mutant p53 to bind ...
A single nucleotide polymorphism, or SNP, is a single base-pair difference in the DNA sequence of individual members of a species; not necessarily a pathological mutation, but commonly studied as ...

Researchers have uncovered evidence that widespread forest loss has driven repeated colour shifts in insects, providing a striking example of human-induced evolution in the wild.
