(He Jiankui) is not the only concern in this area. One of our big concerns I always have is the possibility that there will be rogue companies, rogue scientists setting up to do genome editing in an inappropriate way.

The astonishing finding is that there’s a backup copy of the software in the body that you can reset, we’re showing why that software gets corrupted and how we can reboot the system by tapping into a reset switch that restores the cell’s ability to read the genome correctly again, as if it was young.

The genes coding for type I antifreeze proteins are likely recent additions to the fish genome and may be actively expanding to additional copies, it's like catching evolution in action.

We are unlikely to get the full genome sequence of the extinct species, thus we will never be able to fully recreate the genome of the lost form. There will always be some parts that can't be changed, they will have to cherry pick what changes to make. And thus the result will be a hybrid.

Her genome fills in a really important missing piece of the overall story of how humans got to the Americas. A lot of work has been focused on the other branch of Native Americans' ancestry -- the Siberians -- but not much was known until this paper about the East Asian ancestors of Native Americans '. It's really important to understand this branch, as it accounts for the majority of Native American ancestry !

We don't yet have evidence that there's mutation in the virus itself. We are beginning to collect that information, we will be convening our groups of virologists and other experts who will discuss this very question based on the sequence of the genome of some of the cases that are being detected.

The two basic mechanisms are either chain termination, which I call the delayed stop sign, or mutagenesis, which is like blowing potholes in the road as the car is driving along. It's just damaging the genome.

Although I know there are some people interested in potentially resurrecting this species, I think we have a long way to go before we would be able to actually do this, it would require significant time and financial resources to not only recapitulate its genome, but also establish the required host plants for the larvae and native symbiotic ants. During this time of a global insect decline, I would prefer to see our resources put towards saving those species already endangered or protecting critical habitat.

Museomics is the use of museum collections for genome sequencing and other analytical techniques that could not even be imagined when the majority of museum specimens were collected, what makes this so groundbreaking is that we can address questions that can not be answered any other way. This study is a great example of this since we can not go out and collect the Xerces blue butterfly and the only way to address genetic questions about this species is by turning to museum collections.

They have the lion's share by a long way in the market when it comes to genome sequencing. BGI have a fairly equivalent technology now ... They are really a competitor in the market with real potential to disrupt.

The WIV does not have the intention and the ability to design and construct a new coronavirus, moreover, there is no information within the SARS-CoV-2 genome indicating it was manmade.

We scanned the entire human genome and found a handful - five to be precise - of locations that are clearly associated with whether a person reports in engaging in same-sex sexual behavior.

The genome isn't just about you -- it contains information about your parents, your siblings, and your own progeny, so from a privacy standpoint, DNA data is a far more sensitive kind of health information than a sports injury, and it challenges our conventional norms of consent because you're effectively making decisions about other people's DNA.

Before this procedure comes anywhere near clinical practice, we need years of work to show that meddling with the genome of the embryo is not going to cause harm to the future person.

The melanoma had something like 25,000 mutations, which was more than the world had ever seen in one genome, we could really see the signatures of the exposures that had taken place at an incredibly fine-grained resolution, and we could see all sorts of features and nuances that we hadn't noticed before.

We set out to investigate the Burmese python in the Everglades to help provide information for management and conservation agencies…we found 13 of the 400 snakes that we analyzed had portions of Indian python within their genome.

Obviously we have to conserve based on the landscape at the minute, and it’s tempting to think that it has never been any different, but the genome is a powerful way of capturing diversity and looking back to see what it once was.

Even though this is the best we can achieve at the moment, not all patients become free of transfusions and we still do not know the long-term effects of manipulating the genome of stem cells in this way, a major question hanging over this approach, which is hugely expensive, is whether this procedure, which involves killing off abnormal stem cells to replace them with modified stem cells, will ever become clinically possible in developing countries where the majority of these disorders of hemoglobin occur.

We could detect only a few hundred variants in a genome that is larger than the human genome. That is an incredibly small number, if we had more than one animal as a founder, we would have greater genetic differences.
