HUM-MOLGEN News Alert - May 11, 2004 - http://hum-molgen.org


Genetic News
by T.M. D'Souza, W. Kalle, A.W.I. Lo, R.V. Nemade, U. Sattler, F.S. Zollmann
http://hum-molgen.org/NewsGen

- The role of cancer-causing mutations in BRCA1
   Two structural studies reveal how such mutations can affect the function
   of BRCA1, leading to cancer.
   http://hum-molgen.org/NewsGen/05-2004/msg07.html

- Insulin factories produced by self replication
   Insulin-producing beta-cells can proliferate by making more of
   themselves, according to a study, which counters the prevailing
   hypothesis on beta-cell production, and may aid the development of new
   treatments for type I diabetes.
   http://hum-molgen.org/NewsGen/05-2004/msg06.html

- Genetic trigger for heart attack
   A single base mutation in a key gene may affect an individual&apos;s
   susceptibility to heart attack.
   http://hum-molgen.org/NewsGen/05-2004/msg05.html

- DNA computers could control gene expression
   Researchers have made a tiny molecular-scale computer that can analyse
   biological information in a test tube and respond appropriately.
   http://hum-molgen.org/NewsGen/05-2004/msg04.html

- Tracking cancer treatments
   A new way of studying the action of a breast-cancer drug in the body
   promises to facilitate the design of molecular-targeted therapies.
   http://hum-molgen.org/NewsGen/05-2004/msg03.html

- Enhancing incorporation of stem cells
   Research shows that bone marrow stem cells from mice, missing a gene
   known to inhibit cell division, can overcome the hurdle of inducing
   efficient repopulation of target tissues by stem cells.
   http://hum-molgen.org/NewsGen/05-2004/msg02.html

- New insights into male infertility
   A protein important for defence against pathogens may also be required
   for sperm maturation, suggesting a possible common basis for some
   sexually transmitted diseases (STDs) and infertility.
   http://hum-molgen.org/NewsGen/05-2004/msg01.html

- Raising The Dead
   Resurrecting ancient genes is now allowing scientists to peer into the
   genetic causes of primeval evolutionary processes.
   http://hum-molgen.org/NewsGen/04-2004/msg25.html

- Should Healthy People Take Mind-Boosting Drugs?
   Is it safe, fair and morally acceptable to use drugs originally created
   for mental dysfunctions to improve the minds of normal, healthy people?
   The time to answer these social and ethical questions is now, says a
   group of leading neuroscientists.
   http://hum-molgen.org/NewsGen/04-2004/msg24.html

- Understanding HIV Drug Resistance
   A study reports two related structures of reverse transcriptase (RT)
   with bound tenofovir. The results explain the unusually low resistance
   of HIV to tenofovir.
