Gene surveys identify schizophrenia triggers
sea-maid submitted, created time 2 months 5 days (www.nature.com)
Rare genetic changes associated with a heightened risk of schizophrenia have been revealed by two independent studies.
The surveys have identified sections of the human genome that, when deleted, can elevate the risk of developing schizophrenia by up to fifteen times compared with the general population. 
Sequencing single molecules of DNA
jane2007 submitted, created time 6 months 2 days (www.nature.com)
A machine produced by Helicos BioSciences is the first of a new generation of devices, called single-molecule DNA sequencers, to enter the market. It can read individual letters from single molecules of DNA.
"Junk" RNA may play a role in vertebrate evolution
sumsung submitted, created time 7 months 2 weeks (www.sciam.com)
Genetic material once dismissed as mere "junk" may in fact be responsible to the evolution of simple invertebrates into more complex organisms sporting backbones, according to a new study.
Genome stitched together by hand
sumsung submitted, created time 8 months 1 week (www.nature.com)
Scientists have succeeded in stitching together an entire bacterial genome, creating in the lab the full set of instructions needed to make a living thing. The stage is now set for the creation of the first artificial organism — and it could be achieved within the year.
Scientists Synthesize a Genome From Scratch
sumsung submitted, created time 8 months 1 week (sciencenow.sciencemag.org)
Researchers have rebuilt an entire genome from scratch, they report online today in Science. Although the team has yet to demonstrate that this DNA can substitute for the real thing, the work paves the way for customized bacteria that could efficiently produce drugs, biofuels, and other molecules useful to humankind.

How many genome sequences do you need to characterize a model organism? For Drosophila, Heidi Ledford finds, a dozen is a good start.
Getting the genome sequence for one's favourite organism is still an achievement, but researchers are realizing that to truly understand how genomes function and evolve, they need points of comparison.
Cats Genome Help Understanding Human Genome And Diseases
biosunny submitted, created time 11 months 4 days (www.efluxmedia.com)
An Abyssinian cat, called Cinnamon, will be the object of a 3 million pounds project in order to have its genome mapped. Next year, when the details of the cat’s genome will be revealed in full, Cinnamon will represent her species, Felis catus, as their genetic model. The cat genomes and humans are very similar. A cat genome is thought to contain 20,285 genes and the human genome is believed to hold between 20,000 and 25,000 genes.
Cat genome sequenced ...sort of
Hecate submitted, created time 11 months 5 days (www.nature.com)
The opossum can move over; 60% of the cat genome has been sequenced. Although the project is incomplete, there are enough genes available for some kinds of studies. Seems a bit anticlimactic to me.
Genome update defines landscape of breast and colon cancers
james submitted, created time 11 months 3 weeks (www.eurekalert.org)
One year after completing the first large-scale report sequencing breast and colon cancer genes, Johns Hopkins Kimmel Cancer Center scientists have studied the vast majority of protein-coding genes which now suggest a landscape dominated by genes that each are mutated in relatively few cancers.

Giardia lamblia, one of the most common human parasites in the United States, causes more than 20,000 intestinal infections a year, often through contact with contaminated drinking or swimming water. In the September 28 issue of Science, an international team led by researchers at the MBL (Marine Biological Laboratory) describe the complete genome (genetic sequence) of Giardia, which could lead to the development of new drugs to combat this persistent infection, called giardiasis.
Genome sequencing and comparative analysis of Saccharomyces cerevisiae strain YJM789
sumsung submitted, created time 1 year 2 months (www.pnas.org)
We sequenced the genome of Saccharomyces cerevisiae strain YJM789, which was derived from a yeast isolated from the lung of an AIDS patient with pneumonia.
Restless legs genetics on the move
bianjie submitted, created time 1 year 2 months (www.gsf.de)
Scientists from the Munich GSF Research Center for Environment and Health, the Technical University of Munich and the Max Planck Institute for Psychiatry have finally identified sequence variants in the genome, which are more frequent in RLS patients than in the normal population. For the first time ever this allowed insights into the underlying cause of this disease.

Adaptation to the environment has a stronger effect on the genome than anticipated.
Decoding mushroom's secrets could combat carbon, find better biofuels & safer soils
bianjie submitted, created time 1 year 2 months (www2.warwick.ac.uk)
Researchers at the University of Warwick are co-ordinating a global effort to sequence the genome of one of the World most important mushrooms -- Agaricus bisporus. The secrets of its genetic make up could assist the creation of biofuels, support the effort to manage global carbon, and help remove heavy metals from contaminated soils.
Sea anemone genome provides new view of our multi-celled ancestors
bianjie submitted, created time 1 year 2 months (www.biologynews.net)
The first analysis of the genome of the sea anemone shows it to be nearly as complex as the human genome, providing major insights into the common ancestor of not only humans and sea anemones, but of nearly all multi-celled animals.
