Synopsis: Biotech: Genetics: Genetic code:

'where an A g, C or T in the genetic code has been replaced with another letter. The spelling mistake is called Single Nucleotide Polymorphism (SNP.

#Rapeseed genes could take the bite out of broccoli Scientists have unraveled the genetic code of the rapeseed plant

#Secret code discovered in human DNA Genomes use the genetic code to write two separate languages. A secret second code hiding within DNA

##Ever since the genetic code was deciphered over 40 years ago, scientists have believed that it only described how proteins are made.

However, the revelation made by the research team led by John Stamatoyannopoulos of the University of Washington indicates that genomes use the genetic code to write two separate languages.##

##For over 40 years we have assumed that DNA changes affecting the genetic code solely impact how proteins are made,

Scientists already knew that the genetic code uses a 64-letter alphabet called codons. The research team discovered that some of the codons can have two meanings one related to proteins, the other to gene control.

##The fact that the genetic code can simultaneously write two kinds of information means that many DNA changes that appear to alter protein sequences may actually cause disease by disrupting gene control programs

Understanding humanity s genetic code is not only going to be fundamental to the medicine of the future.

Over the next four years, about 75,000 patients with cancer and rare diseases, plus their close relatives, will have their whole genetic codes,

#Freaky engineered organism has 6-letter DNA in its genetic code The first report of a bacterium

or RNAI to destroy the genetic code of an insect in a specific DNA sequence. The technology is expected to have great potential for safe and effective control of insect pests Zhu said.

#Researchers create unique graphene nanopores with optical antennas for DNA sequencing High-speed reading of the genetic code should get a boost with the creation of the world's first graphene nanopores pores measuring approximately 2 nanometers in diameter that feature a"built-in

In this research scientists made copies of the genetic code for one dragline protein from Araneus ventricosus spiders The researchers inserted the copies into the DNA of Japanese silkworms.

and the correct sequence of our genetic information is vital to the accurate transmission of our genetic code.

Professor Lithgow and his team used a novel technology that enables the systematic expansion of the genetic codes of living organisms to include unnatural amino acids beyond the common twenty.

and Disassemble On Command Scientists have deciphered the genetic code that instructs proteins to either self-assemble

another form of muscle disease, exon skipping coaxes cells to kipover abnormal sections of the genetic code,

Editing genetic codes to remove inherited disease has already been shown to work on mice. However most geneticists believe the procedure is not ready to be carried out on human embryos-after the Chinese research led to unwanted mutations in DNA.

"We found that changing even one letter in the genetic code was enough to modify the folding of millions of other letters,

#quid teethplastic self-heals with water Scientists derived the genetic code of squid ring teeth to develop a polymer that self-heals with a single drop of water.

Jewett says. ur new protein-making factory holds promise to expand the genetic code in a unique and transformative way, providing exciting opportunities for synthetic biology and biomolecular engineering,

In one proof-of-principle demonstration, the team edited the genetic code of a standard human antibody to replace one of its target-grappling elements structure that normally would bind to a virus

and to understand how these loops of genetic code act in real-time, the team created computer simulations that revealed the supercoiled loops wriggling over time.

and then edit them, replacing the damaged genetic code with healthy DNA. There is a trend in the scientific community to develop therapeutics in a more rational fashion,

#Water heals a bioplastic (w/video) A drop of water self-heals a multiphase polymer derived from the genetic code of squid ring teeth,

#Proteins assemble and disassemble on command Scientists have deciphered the genetic code that instructs proteins to either self-assemble

and C bases of the genetic code) to the side-by-side split ends as they move out of the helicase to form two new complete double helix DNA strands.

Wednesday, in the journal Nature, they report on the genetic code of Octopus bimaculoides aka the California two-spot octopus.

the researchers uncovered the genetic code for the proteins that allow the teeth to heal themselves when broken.

and with extraordinary precision. e found that changing even one letter in the genetic code was enough to modify the folding of millions of other letters,

or off without editing the underlying genetic code. Originally discovered as an antiviral system in bacteria,

and then"edit"them, replacing the damaged genetic code with healthy DNA.""There is a trend in the scientific community to develop therapeutics in a more rational fashion,

the team edited the genetic code of a standard human antibody to replace one of its target-grappling elements--a structure that normally would bind to a virus, for example--with the protein leptin.

disassemble on command Scientists have deciphered the genetic code that instructs proteins to either self-assemble or disassemble in response to environmental stimuli, such as changes in temperature, salinity or acidity.

#Physiologists uncover a new code at the heart of biology UT Southwestern physiologists trying to understand the genetic code have found a previously unknown code that helps explain which protein should be created to form a particular type of cell.

"Our results uncovered a new'code'within the genetic code. We feel this is quite important, as the finding uncovers an important regulatory process that impacts all biology,

"The genetic code of nucleic acids is central to life, as it specifies the amino acid sequences of proteins,

Therefore, the genetic code not only specifies the sequence of amino acids but also the shape of the protein."

"Therefore, our study indicates that the new"code"--the speed limit of assembly--within the genetic code can dictate the ultimate function of a given protein,

But finding a specific biomarker in a massive amount of genetic code is hard. Zhang and his team at Rice's Bioscience Research Collaborative have become specialists in finding such needles in haystacks.

The Berkeley team began the reassembly process with algorithms that assembled bits of the sequenced genetic code into slightly longer strings called contigs. ou no longer have tiny pieces of DNA,

because the genetic code it contains is unique for every organism. When confronted with a DNA stew,

Romesberg lab could claim to have made the first living thing with an expanded genetic code. eople would ask what the big deal is said,

Ribosomes common to all living organisms are the machines that read the genetic code producing proteins based on the instructions therein.

Now scientists know that there are tiny proteins--epigenetic proteins--that sit atop the genetic code inside cells.

"Our new protein-making factory holds promise to expand the genetic code in a unique and transformative way, providing exciting opportunities for synthetic biology and biomolecular engineering,

The cells that carry an alternative genetic code will make them dependent on an artificial nutrient not available in nature.

And it impossible to determine the exact location where a building block in the genetic code has been altered into an adduct.
