A group of Canadian and European researchers have unlocked the mystery of a gene with the potential to both regulate and block ovulation.
The new study - a collaboration between the Universite de Montreal in Canada and the Institut de Genetique et Biologie Moleculaire et Cellulaire of the Universite de Louis Pasteur, Strasbourg, France - is published in the latest issue of the journal Genes & Development.
"Our findings demonstrate that the Lrh1 gene is essential in regulating ovulation," said Bruce D

A mutation in a single gene may raise one's risk of getting amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS), or Lou Gehrig's disease, by as much as 30 percent, offering a potential new target for drug research, Dutch scientists said on Sunday.

New genotyping research from the Center for Addiction and Mental Health found that the enzyme known to metabolize both the smoking cessation drug bupropion and nicotine is highly genetically variable in all ethnicities and influences smoking cessation. This finding is a step toward being able to tailor smoking cessation treatment to individuals based on their unique genetic make-up.
The politics of autism research -- does the vaccine angle hold merit?
Darkfrog submitted, created time 1 year 6 months (www.nytimes.com)
This article is a pretty good introduction to one of the big divides in the politics of the autism awareness community: the it's-genetic faction vs. the it's-environmental-by-which-we-mean-caused-by-the-preservatives-in-the-vaccines faction. The big issue is on who gets the millions of dollars of research funding generated by the charity Autism Speaks. It's usually split between research into genes and intervention therapies on the one side and research into environmental causes (not limited to vaccines) on the other, but there is usually an issue about who gets how much

Nancy Kleckner became smitten with genetic material as a high school student during the early 1960's, in the dawning of molecular genetic research. "DNA is intrinsically interesting," says Kleckner, now a professor in Harvard's department of molecular and cellular biology (MCB). In addition to being the basis of all life on earth, she says DNA "has a pleasing aesthetic quality to it in terms of how the molecule is designed."

The findings in the April 6, 2007 says an international team led by researchers from the National Human Genome Research Institute (NHGRI), part of the National Institutes of Health (NIH), has identified a genetic variant that is a major contributor to small size in dogs. In such study, the researchers analyzed DNA from more than 3,000 dogs from 143 breeds to pinpoint a specific gene sequence variant, or haplotype, associated with small size in the canine genetic code. Nearly all of the small dogs studied shared this genetic variant, implicating it as a major influence on stature in dogs.

Some people in the US are denied jobs or insurance because of their genetic make-up looks set to be passed after 12 years of debate, but now ,there is a law can protect them.
“The Genetic Information Nondiscrimination Act (GINA), introduced into Congress on 16 January, is sweeping through committees in the House of Representatives and is tipped to appear before the Senate and the full House within weeks. If passed, GINA will become the first federal law to prevent employers from collecting genetic information on their employees
