Researchers predict infinite genomes
Ever since the genomics revolution took off, scientists have been busily deciphering vast numbers of genomes. Cataloging. Analyzing. Comparing. Public databases hold 239 complete bacterial genomes alone. view more (2005-09-23)
Mapping the crocodile genome
The first ever genetic linkage map for a non-avian member of the Class Reptilia has been developed. Researchers writing in the open access journal BMC Genomics have constructed a first-generation genetic linkage map for the saltwater crocodile Crocodylus porosus. view more (2009-07-29)
Cold Spring Harbor Scientists Devise Novel, Low-Cost Method of Sifting Genome's High-Value Regions
Scientists at Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory (CSHL) have developed a new means of extracting and interpreting data from the human genome that is more powerful and more economical than methods currently employed. view more (2007-11-07)
Cell's 'power plant' genes raise vision disorder risk
Genetic variation in the DNA of mitochondria - the "power plants" of cells - contributes to a person's risk of developing age-related macular degeneration (AMD), Vanderbilt investigators report May 7 in the journal PLoS ONE. view more (2008-05-07)
DNA replication behavior in complex organisms may foreshadow leaps in genomic discoveries
For the first time, findings by scientists at the Genome Institute of Singapore (GIS) may be paving the way for more efficient analyses and tests related to the replication of cells, and ultimately, to the better understanding of human biology, such as in stem cell research. view more (2007-08-16)
Genetic analysis helps dissect molecular basis of cardiovascular disease
Using highly precise measurements of plasma lipoprotein concentrations determined by nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy (NMR), researchers led by Daniel Chasman at Brigham and Women's Hospital and Harvard Medical School in Boston, MA, the Framingham Heart Study in Framingham, and the PROCARDIS consortium in Stockholm, Sweden and Oxford,... view more...

Genes chips, robots, phone books and ancient plants at the Royal Norfolk Show as John Innes Centre scientists look into the past and the future.
Visitors to the John Innes Centre's (JIC)[1] stand (374) at this year's Royal Norfolk Show[2] will have the opportunity to see the JIC's Gold Medal winning Chelsea Flower Show exhibit 'Meet the Ancestors - of the past and the future'. Visitors will also be able to learn about the work going on in the recently opened JIC Genome Laboratory, through... view more... (2002-06-26)
Selfing DNA prevents genomes from mixing
Genomes of multicellular organisms are one of the greatest mysteries of biology. The more is discovered about them, the more questions are to be answered. One of such questions is connected with the size of a genome. As is known since the middle of the 20th century, the level of organization of an organism does not depend on the genome size, i.e.,... view more... (2002-10-11)
A novel model to pinpoint human androgen receptor targets developed
A novel computational model to pinpoint androgen receptor targets within the human genome was recently reported. view more (2005-11-01)
Research team finds important role for junk DNA
Scientists have called it "junk DNA." They have long been perplexed by these extensive strands of genetic material that dominate the genome but seem to lack specific functions. view more (2009-05-21)
Chicken genome gives insights into human genome
The draft sequence of the wild chicken, Gallus gallus, will be published in the Dec 9th issue of Nature (cover story). The analysis of this genome is not about getting bigger eggs and tastier chicken - it's giving scientists surprising insights into the human genome. Researchers can use these new data as a tool to identify similar sequences in... view more... (2004-12-06)
Insight into evolution of adaptive immunity boosted by sea urchin genome sequencing
We're not close kin to the sea urchin, but genetically speaking we may have more in common than we think. view more (2006-11-10)
All Eyes and Ears on the Corn Genome
A consortium of researchers led by the Genome Sequencing Center (GSC) at Washington University in St. Louis, Mo., announced today the completion of a draft sequence of the corn genome. view more (2008-03-14)
Genome study of beneficial microbe may help boost plant health
In a study expected to greatly benefit crop plants, scientists have deciphered the genome of a root- and seed-dwelling bacterium that protects plants from diseases. view more (2005-06-27)
Powerful genome ID method extended to humans
A mathematical discovery has extended the reach of a novel genome mapping method to humans, potentially giving cancer biology a faster and more cost-effective tool than traditional DNA sequencing. view more (2006-10-10)
Gene exchange common among sex-manipulating bacteria
Certain bacteria have learned to manipulate the proportion of females and males in insect populations. Now Uppsala University researchers have mapped the entire genome of a bacterium that infects a close relative of the fruit fly. view more (2009-03-26)
Whole genome promoter mapping - Human Genome Project v2.0?
nvestigators from the University California, San Diego (UCSD) Branch of the Ludwig Institute for Cancer Research (LICR) and NimbleGen Systems have developed an efficient method to identify thousands of regulatory sequences in the human genome, according to a study published today in Nature. view more (2005-06-30)
Midget plant gets makeover
A tiny plant with a long name (Arabidopsis thaliana) helps researchers from over 120 countries learn how to design new crops to help meet increasing demands for food, biofuels, industrial materials, and new medicines. view more (2009-06-23)
Scientists construct a physical map of the Drosophila buzzatii genome
An international team of researchers led by the Universitat Autònoma de Barcelona Professor Alfredo Ruiz, has launched in this month's issue of the journal Genome Research the first detailed physical map of the Drosophila buzzatii chromosomes. view more (2005-06-30)
Nine Million Deutschmarks for Genome Research in Bonn
The German government will provide funding totalling over 30 million Deutschmarks for the investigation of genetically based diseases of the nervous system during the next three years. The University of Bonn will receive the biggest portion of this sum, nine million marks. Bonn scientists thus benefit from the recently founded national genome... view more... (2001-04-04)
