- We have conducted a census from the literature of mutated genes that are implicated in the causation of human cancer (cancer genes). Currently, more than 1% of all human genes are cancer genes, of which approximately 90% exhibit somatic mutations in cancer, 20% bear germline mutations that predispose to cancer and 10% show both somatic and germline mutations. The census is dominated by genes that are activated by somatic chromosomal translocations amongst leukaemias, lymphomas and mesenchymal tumours. The most commonly represented domain encoded by cancer genes is the protein kinase, followed by domains involved in DNA binding and transcriptional regulation. ...
- The protein domains encoded by cancer genes have been compared to the domains encoded by randomly selected human genes (Table 2). The most common Pfam domain encoded by cancer genes is the protein kinase domain which is approximately four-fold overrepresented amongst cancer genes compared to randomly selected human genes. Domains involved in DNA binding, transcriptional regulation and DNA repair are also common amongst cancer genes and overrepresented compared to randomly selected human genes. ...
- We have compared the protein domains encoded by cancer genes according to whether mutations in the cancer gene act in a dominant or recessive manner, whether the mutations are somatic or present in the germline, the tumour types in which the mutations are found and the classes of mutation (Table 3). ...
- Above is the working list of known cancer genes. ... We have sorted the data in a number of ways to list subsets of cancer genes with similar features. ...

4. Finding the Genes that Determine Canine Behavior
- www.bordercollie.org
- Finding the Genes that Determine Canine Behavior.
- The following is an explanation of how scientists working on the Dog Genome Initiative are going about trying to identify genes that determine behavior or inherited diseases in dogs. ...
- Start by thinking of GENES as pearls on a string (made of DNA instead of oyster saliva).
- Now suppose that you wanted to know how many of these genes it takes to control something as complicated as the behavioural trait we call "eye" and you wanted to know which particular ones, on which particular strings, do the job. ...
- The micro-satellites have three properties that make them incredibly useful to researchers who want to find the genes that control particular traits.
- So, although both humans and dogs carry genes for blue and brown eyes, and red and black hair (and probably for behavioral things like attention spans and ability to see and hear), the years of breaks and repairs that have gone on between us will lead to differences in the positions and lengths of the micro-satellites.
- Now remember that nobody knows where the behavior genes are (or even how many exist, or which types of behavior are influenced by genes). ... How can they use this information to find the behavior genes?.
- By analyzing the behavior of this first cross, the scientists can make some guesses about the relative strengths of the different behavior genes, (though they won't yet be able to say how many there are or where they sit on the chromosomes). ... If they tend to do both, paying attention with both their ears and their eyes, the genes would be said to be CO-DOMINANT. ... Stationary genes on chromosome 4 are not co-dominant, but that paying attention only to moving things is dominant over paying attention to both moving and stationary things. ...
- This is a dog that has copies of the border collie genes for LOOKING and STATIONARY/MOVING and doesn't have copies of the newfoundland genes. We don't know where these genes are yet, all we know is that we have found a dog that has them. ...
- But we can't yet conclude that the Looking and Stationary/Moving genes are on chromosomes 2 and 4 because this dog also has two sets of border collie chromosomes 7, 9 and 13. Though these chromosomes don't carry any genes that we're interested in, we don't know that yet. ...
- We haven't learned anything more about the Stationary/moving gene because this dog has the dominant trait (looking at only moving things) that can result from having either two pure copies of newf genes (m) or one copy each of the border collie (Sm) and the newfoundland (m) gene.

- What are genes? They are your body's unique code -- a set of information and instructions that makes you the individual that you are. You inherit your genes from your biological parents. Your genes determine the color of your eyes, your height, and many other things. ...
- Plants, animals, and even bacteria also have genes. ...
- Genes are made of a substance called DNA, which stands for deoxyribonucleic (dee-OX-ee-rye-bow-new-KLAY-ick) acid. ...
- Not all of your genes are active in every one of your body cells. Each different kind of cell (a liver cell or nerve cell, for instance) turns on the specialized genes that the cell needs to do its job. ...
- Faulty genes can cause certain diseases. People can inherit faulty genes from their parents, or functional genes can mutate (change) before or after birth and cause disease, including cancer. ...
- Genes are very complicated. ...

11. Health & Medical News - Female orgasm is in the genes - 21/02/2005
- www.abc.net.au
- Female orgasm is in the genes.
- A woman's ability to reach orgasm is partly due to her genes, a unique study of Australian twins has found.
- And the relative importance of environmental factors versus genes seems to vary depending on whether a woman masturbates, has sexual intercourse or oral sex.
- The people in the study included genetically identical twins and non-identical twins, with the difference between the two shedding light on the contribution of genes versus environment on behaviour.
- The researchers found that when women try to reach orgasm through masturbation about half (51%) of their chance of success depended on their genes.
- When they had penetrative sex, genes accounted for just 31% of their chance of success, and 37% when a women and her partner used other methods.
- Australian reproductive physiologist Dr Gemma O'Brien from the University of New England in Armidale welcomes the research but says on its own it is of limited use in understanding the influence of genes and environment on orgasm.
- She says it is important to work out which parts of the body genes are influencing. Genes may influence the reproductive tract, and also the development of the hormone system, the nervous system and the brain, all of which can influence orgasm.
- She says genes may, for example, be influencing the quality of the emotional seat of the brain, the limbic system, which is involved in orgasm. ...
