MetaHuman genomics

MetaHuman genomics

In addition, the total number of genes present in the body is estimated to be as much as 99% non-human. The implications of this fact are astonishingthe quality of our lives is as dependent upon the natural flora that we carry as it is upon ‘our’ genes. The time has come to stop ignoring the idea that humans are actually metagenomic systems. Sadly, the metagenomes of the oceans and even Pompeii...

Comparative genomics of human stem cell factor (SCF)

Stem cell factor (SCF) is a critical protein with key roles in the cell such as hematopoiesis, gametogenesis and melanogenesis. In the present study a comparative analysis on nucleotide sequences of SCF was performed in Humanoids using bioinformatics tools including NCBI-BLAST, MEGA6, and JBrowse. Our analysis of nucleotide sequences to find closely evolved organisms with high similarity by NCB...

Biobanks for Genomics and Genomics for Biobanks

Biobanks include biological samples and attached databases. Human biobanks occur in research, technological development and medical activities. Population genomics is highly dependent on the availability of large biobanks. Ethical issues must be considered: protecting the rights of those people whose samples or data are in biobanks (information, autonomy, confidentiality, protection of private ...
