Scientists codify how DNA works

NEW YORK — A colossal international effort has yielded the first comprehensive look at how our DNA works, an encyclopedia of information that will rewrite the textbooks and offer new insights into the biology of disease.

Massive encyclopedia helps explain how the human genome works

Posted: 05 Sep 2012 12:05 PM PDT

A massive consortium of researchers led in part by local scientists has taken the next logical step after researchers mapped the human genome, deciphering the 3 billion letters of DNA that are the blueprint of a person: they've built an encyclopedia that illuminates how the vast majority of that material actually works.

ENCODE project sheds light on human DNA and disease

Posted: 06 Sep 2012 02:12 AM PDT

New findings from the ENCODE project provide insight into how our DNA works and influence common diseases, perhaps renewing hopes for personalized medicine. When the human genome was sequenced a decade ago, scientists hailed the feat as a technical tour de force — but they also knew it was just a start. The "HHA000078" DNA blueprint was finally laid bare, but no one knew what it all meant.

First holistic view of how human genome actually works: ENCODE study produces massive data set

Posted: 05 Sep 2012 11:22 AM PDT

The Human Genome Project produced an almost complete order of the 3 billion pairs of chemical letters in the DNA that embodies the human genetic code -- but little about the way this blueprint works. Now, after a multi-year concerted effort by more than 440 researchers in 32 labs around the world, a more dynamic picture gives the first holistic view of how the human genome actually does its job.
