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 ...

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.

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 ...

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.

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 ...

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 ...

In the study, investigators led by Celine Bellenguez, MD, Ph.D., at the Pasteur Institute of Lille, performed an in-depth X-chromosome-wide association study of more than 115,000 cases of ...

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 ...

A new study from Weill Cornell Medicine provides insights into how cells maintain the tiny end caps of chromosomes as they divide, a key process in keeping cells healthy. Using yeast, the ...

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.

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 ...
