The recent explosion of information from the study of the human genome has impacted pharmacology in a big way. Genes are made up iong strings of DNA moiecuies (see below) that are highly coiled and compacted into structures called chromosomes. Humans have 23 pairs of chromosomes. [Pg.38]

Mutational errors can extend to include more than just one base of a chromosome. Humans normally have 23 pairs of chromosomes. But mutations can produce a fetus that has an extra copy or copies of a chromosome. The unique physical appearance and retarded mental faculties associated with Down syndrome arise when three copies of chromosome 21 are present. Another type of chromosomal mutation occurs when portions of two adjacent chromosomes swap places with each other. Such a translocation mutation between chromosomes 9 and 22 lead to a certain type of leukemia. [Pg.474]

Retroviruses - A family of RNA viruses that possess reverse transcriptase. After the virus infects a cell, this enzyme transcribes the RNA genome into a double-strand DNA version, which integrates into a host chromosome. Human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) is an example. [Pg.1886]

Telomeres are essential structures that cap the ends of linear chromosomes. Human telomeres are made of a simple DNA repeat, (TTAGGG)n [1,2]. These repeats serve as anchor for the recruitment of sequence-specific DNA-binding... [Pg.189]

Chromosome A strand of DNA in the cell nucleus that carries the genes. The number of genes per chromosome and number of chromosomes per individual depend on the species concerned. Often, evolutionary algorithms use just 1 chromosome humans, for example, have 46. [Pg.124]
