"The mystery of the human genome's dark matter"

[edit]

BBC science-news article,12th April 2023: https://www.bbc.com/future/article/20230412-the-mystery-of-the-human-genomes-dark-matter Excerpt: "Twenty years ago, an enormous scientific effort revealed that the human genome contains 20,000 protein-coding genes, but they account for just 2% of our DNA. The rest of was written off as junk – but we are now realising it has a crucial role to play.

When the 13-year-long effort to sequence the entire "book of life" encoded within the human genome was declared "complete" in April 2003, there were high expectations. It was hoped that the Human Genome Project, at a cost of around $3bn (£2.5bn), would yield treatments for chronic illnesses, and shed light on everything that is genetically determined about our lives. But even as the press conferences were being held to herald the triumph of this new era of biological understanding, this instruction manual for human life had already thrown up an unexpected surprise. . . .

"I just remember the incredible shock," says Samir Ounzain, a molecular biologist and chief executive of a company called Haya Therapeutics, which is attempting to use our understanding of human genetics to develop new treatments for cardiovascular disease, cancer and other chronic illnesses. "That was the moment where people started wondering, 'maybe we have the wrong conceptualisation of biology?'" The remaining 98% of our DNA became known as dark matter, or the dark genome, a mysterious melee of letters with no obvious meaning or purpose. Initially some geneticists suggested that the dark genome was simply junk DNA or the rubbish bin of human evolution – the remnants of broken genes which had long ceased to be relevant." Pete Tillman (talk) 15:33, 15 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Stuck here for the moment since it seemed the most relevant place in our current content here for the "Dark Genome." Interesting stuff! --Pete Tillman (talk) 15:35, 15 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]
