Abstract

Aging has long been ascribed to the gradual accumulation of mutations in the genome. However, it is only recently that the necessary sophisticated technology has been developed to begin testing this theory and its consequences. This book reviews the concept of genomic instability as a possible universal cause of aging in complex organisms resulting from recent advances in functional genomics and systems biology. - ;Aging has long since been ascribed to the gradual accumulation of DNA mutations in the genome of somatic cells. However, it is only recently that the necessary sophisticated technol

Abstract

The American Technological Challenge - Stagnation and Decline in the 21st Century refutes the myth that we live in the most innovative of times. Inventions themselves are only one of the factors that determine the technological fate of a society. Sometimes, inventions are adopted, and eagerly; sometimes not. The history of technological progress, and the historical and societal factors that impel or restrain the adoption of inventions, are explored in the book. New, life-changing inventions have become rare and in spite of ample vocal support of innovation, an increasingly complacent society h

Abstract

New technology for analyzing complex genomes is an important area of modern molecular biosciences. This book focuses on a recently developed genome scanning method, termed two-dimensional 2-D DNA typing, which is based on a combination of two independent electrophoretic separation principles. When separation according to size is coupled to separation according to base-pair composition, complex genomes can be resolved in a number of DNA fragments. These fragments or subsets can be visualized, for example, by hybridization analysis with specific probes. Genome scanning by 2-D DNA typing finds applications in many areas, such as linkage and association studies for identifying genetic traits in humans, animals and plants, studies on genetic instabilities in cancers, classification studies in bacteria and other lower organisms, studies on human mutation rates, and the identification of mutations in large genes.
