Let us make an in-depth study of the gene therapy principles for neoplastic disorders and infectious diseases. Cancer Gene Therapies: Many different approaches can be used for cancer gene therapy (see Culver and Blaese, 1994 and Table 23.6) and, in marked contrast to the few gene therapy trials for inherited disorders, numerous cancer gene therapy trials are currently being conducted [...]
In this article we will discuss about the Introduction and hypothesis of human gene evolution. Introduction to the Evolution of Human Gene: Some chromosomes appear to have been relatively protected from change during primate evolution, for example human chromosome 19 and X. By contrast other chromosomes have been prone to significant reorganization for example human chromosomes 1, 2, 3 and [...]
The following points highlight the six main types of genes. The types are: 1. Complementary Genes 2. Duplicate Genes 3. Polymeric Genes 4. Modifying Genes 5. Lethal Genes 6. Moveable Genes. Type # 1. Complementary Genes: Bateson and Punnett crossed two different white flowered varieties of sweet pea and obtained an F1 progeny of red flowered plants. On self-pollination the [...]
