Uncovering the full range of human genes
For the first time, scientists have uncovered the full range of human genes. Ninety-two percent of human genotypes were unveiled in 2003. It took almost two decades to analyze the remaining 6 percent. The full genome was announced last Thursday from a consortium of scientists called Telomeres to Telomeres (TTTUs).
According to a BBC report, this will make it possible to explain how each cell in the human body is formed; This will open the door to new possibilities for disease prevention, disease prevention and cure.
All the genetic traits of an organism are controlled by one or more genes. Colin Johnson, a professor of medical and molecular genetics at the University of Leeds in the United Kingdom, says that the whole pattern of human genes is groundbreaking. "It simply came to our notice then. Every chapter of life, page will come up. '
Eric Green, director of the National Human Genome Research Institute (NHGRI) at the U.S. National Institutes of Health, said: This will give us a complete picture of our DNA pattern for the first time. "
Green said, "This basic information will accelerate the ongoing efforts to understand all the functional subtleties of human genes. This will speed up the genetic analysis of many human diseases. '
Scientists have identified 2,000 new genes in this study. Most of these genes are inactive. However, 115 genes are thought to be active. In addition, researchers have identified more than 2 million additional genetic mutations, of which 622 are currently medical-related.
The Telomere to Telomere (TTUT) consortium was named after a structure located on the edge of the chromosome. This thread-like object in the nucleus of most living cells can carry genetic information.
Adam Philippi, a researcher at Tituto's leadership level, said, "In the future, if someone's genome is sequenced, we will be able to identify all aspects of his DNA, which will be able to provide better direction in healthcare."
Philippi added, "Perfect human genesis means adding another pair of new glasses. We can see everything more clearly now. "
