    Extractions: Home Research ... John P. Hussman Institute for Human Genomics Search John P. Hussman Institute for Human Genomics (HIHG) seeks to discover and explain the genetic influences on human health and to pioneer the application of this knowledge to the diagnosis, intervention, and prevention of disease, thus changing the practice of medicine and fulfilling the promise of the Human Genome Project for direct patient care. In recent years, the fields of genetics and genomics have grown more rapidly than any other area of medicine. The field extends far beyond traditionally recognized single-gene disorders such as Huntington Disease, Sickle Cell Anemia, and Cystic Fibrosis to include complex and common human diseases such as autism, Alzheimer and Parkinson diseases, heart disease, and cancer. Understanding the complicated interactions behind these multi-gene disorders as well as the interactions of these gene networks with non-genetic or environmental factors is the foundation for the creation and development of genomic medicine as a new and promising field with implications for the practice of medicine and the healthcare industry.

    Extractions: SAGE Publications UK A major contribution to the long-term storage and access of data on mutation for genes and disease has been established with the launch of Human Genomics and Proteomics, the first database journal affiliated with a database, FINDbase: the National/Ethnic Mutation Database documenting frequencies of causative mutations leading to inherited disorders in various populations worldwide. The first title to be launched through SAGE-Hindawi � the joint collaboration between SAGE and Hindawi Publishing Corporation, Human Genomics and Proteomics (HGP) is a peer-reviewed international open access journal that will provide a unique forum for the discussion of research on human genomics and proteomics, systems biology and various aspects of personalized medicine. The journal�s affiliation with the FINDbase database offers a distinct opportunity to widen access to essential reference information on population-specific mutation data across a range of genetic disorders. The journal will publish high quality original and review articles comprising research on human genomics and proteomics. Additionally, short articles including datasets on population-specific distribution and frequencies of disease-causing mutations will be considered for inclusion in the journal�s dedicated section. These articles will also be peer-reviewed and, if accepted, will be published against a PubMed ID upon acceptance of the journal by PubMed/Medline.

The HGSC The HGSC, founded in 1996, is a world leader in genomics. The fundamental interests of the HGSC are in advancing biology and genetics by improved genome technologies. One of three large-scale sequencing centers funded by the National Institutes of Health, the HGSC's location at the heart of the Texas Medical Center provides a unique opportunity to apply the cutting edge of genome technologies in science and medicine. IN THE SPOTLIGHT By sequencing the whole genomes of five African bushmen, including bishop Desmond Tutu, we discovered greater variation (1.2 SNPs per kilobase) within the bushmen population than between the average European and Asian (1.0 SNPs per kilobase). This provides an important glimpse into the genetic structure of one of the oldest known lineages of modern humans.

    Extractions: SCIENCE FRIDAY... Science Friday Archives June Hour One: Human Genome Project / Genetics Update As rumors swirled around the genetics community that the Celera corporation was within days of releasing the full results of their human genome sequencing work, Craig Venter, head of Celera, and Francis Collins, head of the National Institutes of Health genome project, said that their two projects really were not racing to the finish at all. At an NIH conference on genetics and cancer this week, the two scientists said that their roles "complemented" each other. Furthermore, the Celera leader said that all the company's genome data would be made freely available, not sold privately to pharmaceutical and biotech companies. This unusually friendly meeting between the two scientists comes during a busy time for genetics research. Earlier his month, Celera announced that it had sequenced 1/3 of the mouse genome. In March, the company published the data for the gene sequence of the fruit fly, a favorite of biologists. In other news, the actual number of genes in the human genome is in debate. Estimates range from about 30,000 to over 100,000but noone really knows. Dueling papers in the journal Nature Genetics, and a debate at a recent conference at the Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory, have increased the speculation. (There's even a sweepstakes running in which scientists bet on the number of genes that code for proteins, winner take all.)

    Extractions: Last year the official completion of the human genome sequence was announced, capping years of hard work. Now that the flashbulbs have dimmed, scientists are taking a hard look at the results. Benefits of the sequence were prophesied to include 'magic bullet' therapeutics, individualized medicine, and the prediction of disease long before symptoms surface. But to realize these breakthroughs, we must fashion the four-letter code we all share into tools physicians can use, and ensure that these tools are readily available. Although one graduate student can now make huge strides with access to the Internet and basic molecular biology equipment, true success may demand nothing short of entirely new methods of clinical study and reorganization of existing academic structures. As the articles in this Nature Insight demonstrate, the intersection of genomics and clinical practice is a busy and fascinating place. The road to treatments based on genomic information has not been smooth, but clinical trials are underway for a number of new therapies. New methods of mutation screening are emerging, both for the genome and for the 'epigenome' layered onto it. An understanding of the many mutations that underlie complex diseases and adverse drug reactions is now in our sights, aided by a large international effort to define the differences between our individual genomes. And the availability of genome sequence from our close and far evolutionary relatives is helping us to decipher the signals of genes and regulatory elements from the noise of background DNA, which is not yet fully understood.

53. Jewish Law - Commentary/Opinion
    Commentary from the Jewish Law (journal) site that deals with questions that Judaism raises in connection with the human genome project  
    http://www.jlaw.com/Commentary/genome.html
    
    Extractions: Judaism and the Human Genome Project by Richard Greenberg "Today," President Clinton declared at a recent White House ceremony, "we are learning the language in which God created life." No, he didn't mean Hebrew, although that would have been a nice touch. Clinton was referring to the human genome, the multi-billion-letter "operating manual" for homo sapiens that scientists have finally deciphered surely the most eagerly awaited literary release this side of Harry Potter. This cracking of the genetic code promises to revolutionize medicine, but it also raises a host of moral and ethical questions that Judaism speaks to. The genome, for example, will no doubt help us better understand human behavior-and misbehavior-by identifying its genetic components. Consider where that might take us. Fast-forward to the year 2015: Is it farfetched to imagine, say, enterprising defense attorneys concocting "genetic defenses" for their clients? Judaism wouldn't buy it. Our tradition maintains that biology is not destiny, and therefore holds people accountable for their actions-whether or not they have whatever syndrome is momentarily fashionable. There are legitimate mitigating factors, of course, such as mental incompetence, but Judaism otherwise consistently affirms the ability of people to exercise their free will and make moral choices. In fact, in general the Talmud says a person is always liable for his actions, whether awake or asleep. Unfortunately, Judaism's position runs counter to a growing societal tendency to diminish personal accountability, often using medical or psychological "explanations" to excuse evil deeds. Does the term "Twinkie defense" ring a bell? That argument was used in a celebrated 1978 case by an attorney who maintained that his client was driven to commit murder by his addiction to junk food.

Elie Dolgin looks at how close they are. Elie Dolgin Download a PDF of this story From her windowless fifth-floor office at the US National Institutes of Health in Bethesda, Maryland, Deanna Church has few distractions from the job that lies before her. On her computer sit 888 open 'tickets', or outstanding problems with the human genome sequence. Although that number fluctuates, it's a not-so-subtle reminder that she and her team at the National Center for Biotechnology Information (NCBI) have a long way to go to finish the job started nearly two decades ago by the Human Genome Project. This is the same project that an international team of scientists spent close to US$3 billion on to complete. In 2000, the scientists announced, to much fanfare at a White House ceremony, that they had finished the draft sequence of the human genome. They waxed poetic about opening 'evolution's lab notebook' when they published the draft the next year . And they uncorked champagne bottles again in 2003 when the sequence was officially deemed finished . By then, media outlets were reporting the developments with a twinge of fatigue. "This time it is the real thing, scientists promise,"
