Scientists map great white shark genome, revealing clues about cancer and healing wounds

Author: Stephen Johnson / Source: Big Think Scientists have mapped the entire genome of the great white shark. The team found genetic adaptations that seem to help the fish preserve and repair its genome, clues that may help us better understand why sharks rarely get cancer. The team also... Далее

Dun Dun. Duun Duuun! The Great White Shark Genome Is Here

Author: Megan Molteni / Source: WIRED Is there any more daunting animal to study than the great white shark? Just you try attaching a radio transmitter or drawing a tube of blood from a two-ton, razor-toothed, meat-seeking missile. But scientific understanding of these iconic apex predators has... Далее

Guidelines call for limits to whole genome testing for fetuses

Author: Laura Sanders / Source: Science News Decades ago, pregnant women had to wait about 40 weeks before knowing much about their baby. But swiftly moving technology offers increasingly detailed peeks into the womb. Beyond generating adorable 3-D ultrasounds of scrunched-up faces, researchers... Далее

What genetic tests from 23andMe, Veritas and Genos really told me about my health

Author: Tina Hesman Saey / Source: Science News Direct-to-consumer genetic testing first came on the market about a decade ago, but I resisted the temptation to see what health information is hidden in my DNA — until now. As a molecular biology writer, I’ve been skeptical that the field of... Далее

Scientists Have Found Some of the Genes That Make Us So Complex

Author: Kelsey Kennedy / Source: Atlas Obscura The humble honey bee has just 250 million base pairs in its genome. Aedes aegypti, the mosquito that carries yellow fever and dengue fever, has so many more—1.3 billion base pairs, about as many as the eastern spot-billed duck. Cows have more still,... Далее
