Researchers Combine Sequencing, CGH Arrays to Analyze and Annotate a Korean Genome
Published July 8, 2009, 12:47 pm, GenomeWeb News
NEW YORK (GenomeWeb News) — An international team led by researchers at Seoul National University has sequenced and annotated the genome of a Korean individual — the second Korean genome to be sequenced in recent months and the seventh complete human genome to be published in the past two years.
Method for detecting minority genomes in viral quasispecies
Published July 8, 2009, 11:06 am, Pharmalicencing
The invention incorporates a method for the detection of minority memory genomes in viral quasispecies. Such genomes contain, at least, one mutation with respect to the majority genomes and include those involved in resistance to antiviral drugs and viral

HEPATOLOGY: Immune cells linked to severe infant liver disease Very little is known about the cause of biliary atresia, a progressive liver disease in newborns. However, Jorge Bezerra and colleagues, at the University of Cincinnati College of Medicine, Cincinnati, have now linked immune cells known as NK cells to the initiation of biliary atresia in mice.
New Region Of The Genome Associated With The Risk Of Melanoma Identified By The GenoMEL Project
Published July 7, 2009, 4:13 am, Medical News Today
Research is increasingly becoming a networked process. The big genome studies are a good example of the need to pool the efforts of gold standard centers around the world. Only in this way is it possible to achieve results as solid as those obtained by the GenoMEL project, which is funded by the European Commission to study the genetic and environmental risk factors for melanoma.

Genome-wide Map Shows Precisely Where MicroRNAs Do Their Work
Published July 6, 2009, 7:38 am, Science Daily
MicroRNAs are the newest kid on the genetic block. By regulating the unzipping of genetic information, these tiny molecules have set the scientific world alight with such wide-ranging applications as onions that can't make you cry and therapeutic potential for new treatments for viral infections, cancer and degenerative diseases. But the question remains: How do they work?
The GenoMEL project identifies a new region of the genome associated with the risk of melanoma
Published July 6, 2009, 6:37 am, EurekAlert!
( IDIBAPS - Institut d'Investigacions Biomèdiques August Pi i Sunyer ) The genetic study includes 1650 patients and 4336 control subjects from Europe and Australia. Of the three regions of the genome with small variations identified as risk factors for melanoma, one is new and two are associated with pigmentation. These risk factors are shared despite genetic variability and differences in ...
