Single amino acid change in TKTL1 protein underlies greater neuron production in modern humans than Neandertals

Researchers from Dresden uncover a greater neuron production in the frontal lobe during brain development in modern humans than Neandertals, due to the change of a single amino acid in the protein TKTL1.

Moffitt study uses computer modeling to demonstrate the impact of skin homeostasis on driver and passenger mutations

All normal human tissues acquire mutations over time. Some of these mutations may be driver mutations that promote the development of cancer through increased proliferation and survival, while other mutations may be neutral passenger mutations that have no impact on cancer development.
