320000 viruses in mammals yet to sequenced in future!!!
With current biological technique improvements, finally it is now possible to look at millions of unknown viruses at genomic level and understand the mechanism. According to available data, close to 70 per cent of emerging viral diseases such as HIV/AIDS, West Nile, Ebola, SARS, and influenza, ar...Tags: Sequencing, RNA, DNA, Genome, Virus, Mammals, flying fox, HIV

Genome of Rainbow Trout Sequenced
Major finding: “In humans and most vertebrates the duplication events were older so there are fewer duplicated genes still present. Most of the duplicated genes get lost or modified so much that they are no longer recognizable as duplicates over time. In the trout and salmon we can see an ...Tags: Sequencing

Deadly Human Pathogen Cryptococcus Sequenced
"Now, researchers have sequenced the entire genome and all the RNA products of the most important pathogenic lineage of Cryptococcus neoformans, a strain called H99. The results, which appear in PLOS Genetics, also describe a number of genetic changes that can occur after laboratory handling...Tags: Sequencing
