Where is Singapore standing on sequenced genomes in its sleepy
Singapore Genome Institute? Have they been able to genome his own
people like Japan?.

How about genome of LKY and see what medicine can extend his life by
50 years?, And also to use his genes to reproduce him?.

Since dog's genes can be reproduce in South Korea to exactly the same,
it can be done for people too, right?

Japanese joins the ranks of sequenced genomes

PARIS (AFP) - – A Japanese has joined the elite club of humans whose
genetic code has been fully sequenced, according to research unveiled
on Sunday.

The unnamed male gave a sample of DNA which has been unravelled to
show all three billion base pairs, or "letters" in the double-helix
code for life.

Six other genomes are reported to have been fully sequenced since
2001.

They comprise the genomes of James Watson, who co-discovered the
structure of DNA; Craig Venter, a US biotech tycoon; a male of the
Yoruba ethnicity of western Africa; two Korean males; and a male of
Han Chinese ethnicity.

The study, published online in the specialist journal Nature Genetics,
is headed by Tatsuhiko Tsunoda of the Centre for Genomic Medicine in
Yokohama.

An international research consortium has launched the so-called
"Thousand Genomes Project" aimed at fully sequencing the genomes of
1,000 anonymous individuals and placing the data in the public domain.

The project aims at shedding light on genetic variations that can
explain inherited vulnerability to disease, tailor drugs to individual
needs and help explain the odyssey of human migration.

In email exchange with AFP, Tsunoda said he was cautious about making
any early comparison between the Japanese and the other known genomes,
as the seven sequencing projects used different methods to unravel the
DNA and analyse it.

"More samples -- dozens -- would be necessary, which is our future
plan," he said.

Tsunoda said his team were working on new ways to spot patterns of
multiple variations in the gene code.

"In the future, we would be able to find (a) huge number of variations
in individual genomes that should be related to many diseases," he
said.- Hide quoted text -
