An international team led by Monash University researchers has uncovered the genetic code governing the way genetic mutations affect mRNA and result in disease.

Scientists have long believed that a universal genetic code serves as a blueprint for all life on Earth, dictating the structure and function of organisms from the simplest bacteria to complex humans.
