Biochemical and genetic researchers divide the proteins into three groups S-poor, i.e. sulfur poor, S-rich, i.e. sulfur rich, and HMW-prolamins, i.e. high molecular weight prolamins. 

This concern about stigmatization is, at its heart, an odd one. Public health statistics on varying levels of disease exist, both for nations and, in some cases, for ethnic groups within nations. Those statistics already show that some groups have higher rates of certain diseases than other groups do—but lower rates of other diseases. Even if observers focus only on the diseases with increased incidence, genetic research into the precise alleles responsible for the disease should not add information about the relative... 

All genetic researchers whose might be similarly misused should accept a similar responsibility—and the groups with which they work should demand such a commitment.

Genetic research could be conducted by several different groups. How much trust would you have in each of the following groups to carry out genetic research First,... (ROTATE) ... 

The analysis of epigenetic changes, mainly the covalent addition of methyl groups to the 5 position of Cytosine in CpG sequences, has become an increasingly important field in genetic research. The DNA methylation has... 

The wide range of molecular techniques available and the rapid pace of new developments make it difficult for an individual to stay apprised of all aspects of the field that might impinge on the research at hand. For this reason, other researchers involved in molecular genetics are a key element of the local environment. This may include other members of the same research group, scientists who share the laboratory facility, or others doing various kinds of molecular genetics research at the same or nearby institutions. The collective molecular expertise in the local environment (and how well one can hope to make use of it) should be carefully assessed, and it may influence decisions on the choice of technique and the scope of research envisioned.
