Scientists Have Discovered A New Appointment DNA.
Another lex non scripta 'common law within DNA has been discovered by scientists - a pronouncement that the researchers say sheds light on how changes to DNA trouble health. Since the genetic code was first deciphered in the 1960s, scientists have believed it was employed solely to write information about proteins. But this new study from University of Washington scientists found that genomes use the genetic cryptogram to write two separate languages.

One wording describes how proteins are made, and the other helps direct genetic activity in cells. One patois is written on top of the other, which is why this other language went undiscovered for so long, according to the report in the Dec 13, 2013 end of Science. "For over 40 years, we have assumed that DNA changes affecting the genetic organization solely impact how proteins are made," team leader Dr John Stamatoyannopoulos, an associate professor of genome sciences and of medicine, said in a university news release.

So "Now we be sure that this basic assumption about reading the human genome missed half of the picture. This other encypher may be where diseases can develop, when the more complicated job of regulating how genes are expressed in cells goes awry, the work authors suggested.

The finding could have a significant impact on how scientists and doctors interpret a patient's genetic encode and lead to new ways to diagnose and treat health problems, the researchers said natural. "The fait accompli that the genetic code can simultaneously write two kinds of information means that many DNA changes that appear to vary protein sequences may actually cause disease by disrupting gene control programs or even both mechanisms simultaneously," Stamatoyannopoulos explained in the advice release.
