Cell loss, mutations in chromosomes, mutations in the mitochondria and so on.

There's a mutation in the gene and one of them mutates to follow a selfish strategy.

And that is, there is an abnormal gene, a mutation in the gene that causes this abnormal cross wiring.

Laboratories would be able to undertake genetic diagnostic testing and possibly discover new mutations.

As a result, harmful mutations would quickly die out. Beneficial ones would spread until the entire species carried them.

And that mutation was passed on to their kids because they're the ones that survived, so there was a great deal of population pressure.

In Africa, because you didn't have these cities, you didn't have that CCR5 population pressure mutation.

If you have this deleterious mutation in this gene, you're 90 percent likely to get cancer in your life.

And what they find is a single point mutation in a gene responsible for controlling programmed cell death.

Such mutations explain about 30 40 of cases in which patients fail to respond to these drugs, and mutations in another gene called BRAF could account for another 12 . Knowing this crucial information about a cancer patient s genes will reduce sharply the number who are unnecessarily subjected to the side effects (and expense) of drugs that will not work.

That is one of the reasons why AIDS is raging across Africa as fast as it is, and not as fast across Europe.

And when they were subject to the plague, most people didn't survive, but those who survived had a mutation on the CCR5 receptor.

These different mice are different mutations that recapitulate different kinds of blindness that affect humans.

And we're beginning to find these little things for malaria, for sickle cell, for cancers.

And what they found was a series of mutations in a gene called SPR, which is responsible for producing serotonin, among other things.

I just told you that, if you make a mutation in the daf 2 gene cell, that you get a receptor that doesn't work as well the animal lives longer.

This is because the conflict is fundamentally a comprehensive one.

The nature of the conflict thus changed from being an essentially externally constructed destabilization campaign into a genuine civil war.

UN 3245 Amend the proper shipping name in column (2) to read as follows GENETICALLY MODIFIED MICROORGANISMS or GENETICALLY MODIFIED ORGANISMS .

It's been known for decades what causes this malignancy.

It's just a single gene.

Because that is our intelligence of mutation and things like that.

You could change the genes in principle.

But, while the number of people affected by such mutations is estimated to be between one in 200 and one in 400, mutations do not translate to serious diseases in most cases. Because the harmful changes are often only present in low levels, and because a single cell can contain both mutated and normal mitochondria, it is widely believed that only one person in 5,000 or even one in 10,000 will be affected by mitochondrial disease.

The memes took a gene machine and turned it into a meme machine.

Now, at high temperatures, all of a sudden, this term is going to dominate.

It's our romanticism. Mu ta tion. We are mutants.

And these changes made the gene not act as well as the normal gene would have acted.

That's why every morning, now, because you are a good mutant, you will raise your angle of view.

Maybe the results of atomic radiation... on plant life or animal life... some weird alien organism, a mutation of some kind.

One gene is changed out of 20,000, and look at it.

Thus, civil armed conflicts turn into a kind of mass crime wave.

172. There is little difference between the causes of the conflict in Southern Kivu and those which led to the conflict in the north and are discussed in paragraphs 14 29 of the Addendum to this report (E CN.4 1997 6 Add.1).

And the way that they're switched on is by a gene regulator protein called FOXO.

) Work to resolve conflicts that radicalize by inducing hatred and despair.

(a) Changes to geographical distribution by varying the weight of the membership, population and contribution factors while holding the base figure constant at the current level of 2,700

Yet the people inside Africa have more genetic variation.

And there is a variant of this gene that is in the normal population.

You might know that, so far in just the dawn of this revolution, we know that there are perhaps 40,000 unique mutations affecting more than 10,000 genes, and that there are 500 of these genes that are bona fide drivers, causes of cancer.

Detecting the seeds of conflict at an early stage and preventing conflicts should become the cornerstone of our collective security.

That's the sound of genetic mutations of the avian flu becoming a deadly human flu.

Thus, the genetically determined portion of an individual s breast cancer risk is the result of several or even many genetic variants and mutations. To take full advantage of the known genetic susceptibility factors, it will be necessary to understand their biological consequences.

You know, we mutate during four billion years before, but now, because it's me, we stop. Fin.

Cancer occurs when a single cell in your body acquires a set of random mutations in important genes that cause that cell to start to produce more and more and more copies of itself.

Hence, the Council needs to put even more emphasis on its work on this topic, which cuts across a broad range of conflicts, by changing the ways in which we address it, in keeping with the changing nature of the conflicts that confront us today.
