No test exists for identifying the 10 million - one in 20 - Americans who are carriers of the CF gene but who have no symptoms. Individuals must inherit a CF gene from both parents to be affected. "The new techniques of recombinant DNA technology should allow researchers to find the gene and exlore its basic defect, potentially providing more effective treatment for people with CF, says White. We are beginning to map the specific location of genes that affect human health and disease. fibrosis. A full description of the work announced in October appears in the Nov. 28 issue of Science. The series of findings reported in Nature are historic and increase the possibility that scientists will find the CF gene and develop new therapies that could affect the 30,000 CF patients and their families living says Robert K.

Murrav high I 40-3- 0 1 cystic fibrosis. The new finding moves scientists much closer to finding the CF gene and identifying the basic defect in the most common, fatal inherited disease in the United States. Dr. Raymong L. White, professor of human genetics and director of the Cystic Fibrosis Foundation Research Center at the University, and his colleagues, reported their findings in the Nov. 28 issue of Nature. Following closely a report in early October revealing an approximate location for the cystic fibrosis gene, the new finding describes a marker much closer to the CF gene. This finding will make it much easier to isolate theCF gene. Scientists have known for neary 40 years that cystic fibrosis is the result of a defective gene, says White, who is also an investigator of the Howard Hughes Medical Institute at Utah. In CF, the body produces abnormally thick, sticky mucous that clogs the lungs and digestive system, interfering with breathing and digestion. Nearly 95 percent of the patients die from marker in prenatal diagnosis. Two other articles in Nature also discuss genetic markers for cystic By employing these techniques the study of cystic fibrosis, we have identified a more specific location for the CF gene. We can now focus our attention on only a tiny fraction of a specific chromosome. As part of a collaborative effort in human gene mapping with Dr. George Vande Woude and his colleagues at the Fredrick Cancer Research Facility, Fredrick, Md., researchers found that a specific gene, the MET oncogene, lies very close to the cystic fibrosis gene, says White. In the same issue of Nature, they report the location of the MET oncogene and, therefore, the location of the CF gene, to a specific region of chromosome 7. White cautions, however, that it is still too early to effectively use this in . CSC 29 - - Old JV's-TB- - SCSC J Vs - TBA Weber State J Vs - New Gym.
