Genetics in the art and art in genetics

Gene, 2015
"Healing is best accomplished when art and science are conjoined, when body and spirit are probed together", says Bernard Lown, in his book "The Lost Art of Healing". Art has long been a witness to disease either through diseases which affected artists or diseases afflicting objects of their art.

Molecular Genetics and Genetic Variation

2010
This chapter contains brief notes on molecular genetics, focusing on those aspects most frequently encountered in genetic epidemiology. The main sections cover the organisation and physical structure of genetic material, the mechanisms involved in transmitting genetic material from one generation to the next, and forms of genetic variation.

Genetics in medicine and medicine in genetics

The American Journal of Medicine, 1963
Abstract The role of genetics in medicine is discussed in the framework of diagnosis, prognosis and treatment. The role of medicine in the advancement of genetics is illustrated with a list of ten leading discoveries in human genetics.

Genetics and Genetic Counselling

1971
In man the genetic code is carried in the nuclear deoxyribonucleic acid (D.N.A.). This D.N.A. is present as long helical double filaments in the chromosomes. The sequence of nucleic acids in these D.N.A. strands determines the nature of the cell proteins and hence the structure and function of the cell.

The Genetics of Schizophrenia is the Genetics of Neurodevelopment

British Journal of Psychiatry, 1991
Genes are now accepted as being important in the aetiology of schizophrenia (Gottesman & Shields, 1982; McGuffinet al,1987), and over the past decade the emphasis in genetic research has shifted away from genetic epidemiology to searching the chromosomal DNA for the genes themselves. Despite this increasing technical sophistication, the application

Genetic Analysis

1998
The Mendelian analysis of genetic variation, available as induced mutants or as natural variation, requires a number of steps that are described in this chapter. These include the determination of the number of genes involved in the observed trait's variation, the determination of dominance relationships between alleles of the same locus, and epistatic

Genetics and reverse genetics of rotavirus

Current Opinion in Virology, 2012
Rotavirus is a member of the family Reoviridae, which have genomes consisting of 10-12 double-stranded RNA segments. The functions of proteins encoded by each segment of the rotavirus genome have been studied extensively by several methods including reassortants, temperature-sensitive mutants, isolates with rearranged RNA segments, RNAi analysis, and ...

Genetic counselling and the new genetics

Trends in Genetics, 1988
Abstract The mapping of most important human disease genes has already been accomplished, promising epochal changes in health care and disease prevention. This article explores the potential benefits and dangers, emphasizing the high priority that must be given to non-directive genetic counselling.

The genetics of adiponectin

Current Diabetes Reports, 2003
Adiponectin encoded by the APMI gene is one of the adipocyte-expressed proteins that function in the homeostatic control of glucose, lipid, and energy metabolism. Its dysregulation has been suggested to be involved in disorders covering the metabolic X syndrome, such as insulin resistance, obesity, type 2 diabetes, and coronary artery disease.
