Decoding ‘junk DNA’ The Human Genome Project and subsequent studies discovered that most of our DNA (approximately 98%) does not actually code for proteins, with humans having approximately 20,000 tox 25,000 protein-coding genes. This leads to potentially severe, debilitating and unbearable toxicities for patients.

The Human Genome Project recently marked 20 years since the publication of the first full sets of human genomic sequences, an endeavor that spanned well over a decade. Today, new next-generation sequencing technologies allow for the sequencing of complex genomes within just a day or two. Rosalind Franklin.

Breakthroughs in gene therapy are only possible with an exact understanding of the genetic underpinnings of disease. To develop safe and effective gene therapies, researchers need confidence that genomic data is both complete and accurate. For years now the UK has been somewhat of a leader in genomic research.

Nutrigenomics is the science studying the relationship between human genome, nutrition and health. In part, the success of the Human Genome Project has also paved a path for the novel concept of nutrigenomics. It further highlights the variation in the genome of patients and identify the sites of metabolic weakness.

The COSMIC (Catalogue of Somatic Mutations in Cancer) database, operated by the Wellcome Sanger Institute, grew out of the work of the Cancer Genome Project and has been gathering data on mutations associated with specific cancers for almost 17 years. The post COSMIC database matches drugs to cancer mutations appeared first on.

During this period, Nobel prize-winning German scientist Paul Ehrlich developed his lock-key hypothesis of molecules that specifically bind to cell receptors. Building on the success of cytokine-based immunotherapies, scientists continued to seek other areas where the immune system could be leveraged against tumours.
