Genetics topics in a Brief
The first panoramic views of the human genetic landscape have revealed a wealth of information and some early surprises. Much remains to be deciphered in this vast trove of information; as the consortium of HGP scientists concluded in their seminal paper, “. . .the more we learn [...]

A Brief Overview
Though surprising to many, the Human Genome Project (HGP) traces its roots to an initiative in the U.S. Department of Energy (DOE). Since 1947, DOE and its predecessor agencies have been charged by Congress with developing new energy resources and technologies and pursuing a deeper understanding of potential health and environmental risks posed [...]

Cells are the fundamental working units of every living system. All the instructions needed to direct their activities are contained within the chemical DNA (deoxyribonucleic acid).
DNA from all organisms is made up of the same chemical and physical components. The DNA sequence is the particular side-by-side arrangement of bases along the [...]

It is evident that, a physiological mechanism allows the targeting and elimination of a sub-population of abnormal sperm- among mice, during fertilization.This mechanism, established by the sperm themselves, increases the chances of fertilization and reduces the risk of fertilization with a sperm defect. These results were published April 26, 2010 in the Journal of Clinical [...]
