Gene Ontology
The mission of the GO Consortium is to develop a comprehensive computational model of biological systems, from the molecular to the organismal level, for many species on the tree of life.
Why it was important to add the CISD2 gene to the Open Genes database
There was such a belief that if cancer was defeated, then life would last only 2-3 years. It’s not like that at all! If you defeat cancer, then consider it – this is defeating aging. You can then water the body with factors
Why, for example, is the Open Genes database needed?
Still, we did a lot of work at Open Genes. At the beginning of the year, we had 70 somehow described genes in the database, and now we have 477, described much better. We probably became the biggest and well
General genes for longevity
What if we crossed two sets of genes: 323 genes associated with longevity in humans, and 166 human genes whose orthologs in animals affect their lifespan. Will we find a match? We have carried out such an analysis. It turned out 42.
About the length of genes
Ещё давно-давно, три года назад, когда начинали пилить Open Genes, мы с Костей Рафиковым обсуждали, что должны как можно больше физических характеристик записать в базу. Вдруг увидим какие-то интересные совпадения у генов, ассоциированных со старением и долголетием? Итак, что мы знаем о размерах генов?
