the largest human chromosome to be sequenced so far. In this hour, we'll talk about what chromosome 7 tells us about diseases like deafness and cancer.

The findings are published in the July 10 issue of the journal Nature. Chromosome 7 is the largest human chromosome to be sequenced so far. The analysis revealed that the chromosome has about ...

TORONTO - Scientists at The Hospital for Sick Children (HSC) have compiled the complete DNA sequence of human chromosome 7 and decoded nearly all of the genes on this medically important portion ...

It has been suggested that gains of chromosomes 7 and 17 and loss of Y occur in renal papillary adenoma and that progression to papillary renal cell carcinoma is marked by gains of additional ...

Interestingly, IDH wild-type glioblastomas are defined by large chromosomal aberrations, specifically in the form of a gain of chromosome 7 and loss of chromosome 10. Gain-of-function genes on ...

Chromosome 7 might be considered among the most human of chromosomes. It contains the so-called "giant gene," a massive sequence that helps build the human brain. Another of its genes prevents ...

The scientists discovered that on one part of the human genome, Chromosome 7, certain DNA variations are associated with an increased risk that a person will try to commit suicide. Additionally ...

Panel D shows polymerase-chain-reaction (PCR) confirmation of translocation between chromosome 7 (red bar) and chromosome Y (blue bar) with the use of primers that span parental wild-type 7–7 ...

Through a European Research Council starting grant, Dr Helen Rowe and her lab have been addressing this question using a mouse stem cell model and a satellite DNA array scattered across chromosome 7.

Previously, chromosome 7 has been the focal point in the search for the gene associated with cystic fibrosis 1 and the frequent cytogenetic changes associated with some forms of cancer 2.
