Researchers have identified a new cancer gene - one that is common to many cancers and affects the most basic regulation of our genes. The new example - a gene on the X chromosome called UTX - is found in 10% of cases of multiple myeloma and 8% of esophageal cancers. http://www.physorg.com/news157559436.html Medicine & Health Sun, 29 Mar 2009 15:31:14 EST news157559436 The Wellcome Trust Sanger Institute has sequenced the equivalent of 300 human genomes in just over six months. The Institute has just reached the staggering total of 1,000,000,000,000 letters of genetic code that will be read by researchers worldwide, helping them to understand the role of genes in health and disease. Scientists will be able to answer questions unthinkable even a few years ago and human medical genetics will be transformed. http://www.physorg.com/news134195974.html Medicine & Health Wed, 02 Jul 2008 05:39:34 EST news134195974
