In many cases, the investigators found that some DNA sequence differences linked to diseases in humans appeared to have counterparts in the mouse genome. (sciencedaily.com)
NYGC computational biologists and members of the Simon Laboratory at The Rockefeller University discussed the possibility of using a series of computer algorithms to search for sequence differences between the tumor samples and samples of healthy liver tissue. (sciencedaily.com)
Using these data, the team built a diagnostic model that predicts who is likely to experience these problems based on sequence differences in a gene coding for an immune protein called interleukin - 4 as well as variations in serum concentrations of three other immune proteins.
