Genetically Engineered Salmon Safe, FDA Says
FDA says that genetically engineered salmon are safe. A species of genetically engineered salmon that grow faster than regular salmon are safe to eat and would not cause any environmental disruptions, according to a new report by the Food and Drug Administration, or FDA. The genetically modified fish, known as AquAdvantage salmon, can grow twice as fast as naturally born salmon, thanks to a growth hormone gene from the Chinook species that was added to the DNA genome of the altered salmon. If the FDA does approve the salmon for sale, it would be the first genetically modified animal product available on the US market, and could open the door for other genetically engineered meat projects to try and break onto the consumer market. Environmentalists are concerned that the modified salmon might overrun native species of fish if they were to accidentally be released into the wild, and skeptics say the tests that were performed on the fish to assess their safety were not adequate to fully understand the potential effects of the AquAdvantage salmon. Senator Mark Begish from Alaska said: "I will fight tooth and nail with my Alaska colleagues to make sure consumers have a clear choice when it comes to wild and sustainable versus lab-grown science projects." Do you think the genetically modified salmon should be available to consumers?From:GeoBeatsNewsViews:2 0ratingsTime:01:11More inNews Politics

GAITHERSBURG, Md.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--

OpGen, Inc. today announced its ARGUS Whole Genome Mapping System technology was used in combination with next-generation sequencing (NGS) to produce the first, high-quality reference genome of the domestic goat. The study, which was led by BGI-Shenzhen and Kunming Institute of Zoology, Chinese Academy of Sciences was published online today in Nature Biotechnology. The paper, titled Sequencing and automated whole-genome optical mapping of the genome of a domestic goat (Capra hircus), demonstrates the value, efficiency and cost effectiveness of OpGens Whole Genome Mapping in de novo assemblies of large, complex genomes.

This independent technology provides not only the validation of the genome sequencing, but also provides the large-scale chromosome structure information that cannot be detected by sequencing, said Xun Xu, Deputy Director, BGI-Shenzhen. The experience in these genome assembly projects shows that the physical whole genome map should be the standard for any reference genome to be assembled in the future.

Goats are an important economic resource in many developing countries around the globe, including China and India. However, despite their agricultural and biological importance, breeding and genetic studies of goats have been hindered by the lack of a high-quality reference genome sequence. The goat genome is the first high-quality reference genome for small ruminate animals and may help to advance the understanding of distinct ruminant genomic features from non-ruminant species.

Although generating draft assemblies from NGS is relatively easy, finishing a sequence to the chromosome level is still difficult and costly. The findings show that a single NGS platform, when combined with Whole Genome Mapping, can produce a finished assembly much faster and less expensively than other currently available mapping strategies such as bacterial artificial chromosome (BACs) or fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH). This approach sets the gold standard in large genome de novo assembly, eliminating the need for genetic maps which can be very time consuming.

By incorporating Whole Genome Mapping, we were able to overcome the limitations of NGS short read scaffolds to produce long super-scaffolds and finish the assembly to the near chromosome level, said Wen Wang, Deputy Director, Kunming Institute of Zoology, Chinese Academy of Sciences and an author of the paper. We could not have completed the project without OpGens technology.

In the study, OpGens ARGUS system produced 100,000 single molecule restriction maps in three hours. This resulted in 30 times the physical coverage of the goat genome. The companys Genome Builder software generated long super-scaffolds by combining single molecule map data with sequence scaffolds generated by NGS and subsequent assembly. Specifically, the metric of assembly (N50) was improved eightfold by combining Whole Genome Mapping with NGS over NGS alone.

While we continue to demonstrate the value of Whole Genome Mapping for assembly, quality control and validation of microbial genomes, we are pleased to expand its applications as a critical, complementary technology enabling investigators to provide complete and accurate long-range genomic information in complex, de novo projects, said Richard Moore, M.D., Ph.D., chief scientific officer of OpGen and an author of the paper. This paper is the first of many we expect to be published over the next year which will validate OpGens Whole Genome Mapping technology as a solution for the de novo assembly of the spectrum of genomes from microbes to mammals.

About ARGUSWhole Genome Mapping System

OpGens ARGUS Whole Genome Mapping System is the only commercially available technology that can provide a high-resolution, complete visual map of a whole genome and individual chromosomes. The companys unique single molecule analysis technology provides a whole genome view that complements genome assembly and enables scientists to identify highly repetitive regions, tandem repeats and translocations that are very difficult to identify and clarify with sequencing alone. Sequencing projects can now be finished and validated with less investment in time, cost and computational effort.

Genome MIDI Sequencer
apps4idevices.com A 16 Track midi sequencer. No it #39;s the best 16 track Midi sequencer on the App Store! Genome MIDI Sequencer is very, very well done, the UI is really nice (I love it because it #39;s really clearly laid out and easy to understand). The first feature that I love is the Remix Pad: on the first window, you have a button that looks like a "Loop" button. Tap it to open the Remix Pad. Then by using one or two fingers, loop a section of your Pattern, set the pitch and the level of the section... Great! The other feature I love is that you can select the track playing for each Pattern which saves you a lot of time when editing a Song. Genome MIDI Sequencer is a Killer App!From:Apps4idevicesMusicViews:27 2ratingsTime:03:30More inMusic

Mitochondrial DNA
For more information, log on to- shomusbiology.weebly.com Download the study materials here- shomusbiology.weebly.com Mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA or mDNA[2]) is the DNA located in organelles called mitochondria, structures within eukaryotic cells that convert the chemical energy from food into a form that cells can use, adenosine triphosphate (ATP). Most other DNA present in eukaryotic organisms is found in the cell nucleus. Mitochondrial DNA can be regarded as the smallest chromosome coding for only 37 genes and containing only 16569 base pairs. Human mitochondrial DNA was the first significant part of the human genome to be sequenced. In most species, including humans, mtDNA is inherited solely from the mother.[3] The DNA sequence of mtDNA has been determined from a large number of organisms and individuals (including some organisms that are extinct), and the comparison of those DNA sequences represents a mainstay of phylogenetics, in that it allows biologists to elucidate the evolutionary relationships among species. It also permits an examination of the relatedness of populations, and so has become important in anthropology and field biology.From:Suman BhattacharjeeViews:0 0ratingsTime:07:55More inEducation
