  • Personal Genome Project

    The Personal Genome Project (PGP) is a long term, large cohort study which aims to sequence and publicize the complete genomes and medical records of 100,000 volunteers, in order to enable research into personal genomics and personalized medicine. It was initiated by Harvard University's George M. Church and announced in 2005. As of August 1, 2014, more than 3,500 volunteers have joined the project. Volunteers are currently accepted if they are permanent residents of the US, Canada or the UK, and are able to submit tissue and/or genetic samples. The Project is planned to launch for Europe and in development for South America and Asia.

    The project will publish the genotype (the full DNA sequence of all 46 chromosomes) of the volunteers, along with extensive information about their phenotype: medical records, various measurements, MRI images, etc. All data will be placed within the public domain and made available over the Internet so that researchers can test various hypotheses about the relationships among genotype, environment and phenotype.

    Ubiquitin carboxy-terminal hydrolase L1

    Ubiquitin carboxy-terminal hydrolase L1 (EC 3.1.2.15, ubiquitin C-terminal hydrolase, UCH-L1) is a deubiquitinating enzyme.

    Function

    UCH-L1 is a member of a gene family whose products hydrolyze small C-terminal adducts of ubiquitin to generate the ubiquitin monomer. Expression of UCH-L1 is highly specific to neurons and to cells of the diffuse neuroendocrine system and their tumors. It is abundantly present in all neurons (accounts for 1-2% of total brain protein), expressed specifically in neurons and testis/ovary.

    The catalytic triad of UCH-L1 contains a cysteine at position 90, an aspartate at position 176, and a histidine at position 161 that are responsible for its hydrolase activity.

    Relevance to neurodegenerative disorders

    A point mutation (I93M) in the gene encoding this protein is implicated as the cause of Parkinson's disease in one German family, although this finding is controversial, as no other Parkinson's disease patients with this mutation have been found.

    Still Uneasy

    by: Pegboy

    The other day I said to you
    I know what you want to do
    I could never sit around
    While you´re feeling down
    And I could never compromise
    My situation lies
    And I would never feel the same
    Would you be the blame?
    Would you leave me
    Still uneasy
    Locked inside of
    Torn in spite of
    I don´t want to, I don´t want to know
    Sometimes when you´re all alone
    Hiding what you´re thinking of
    I could never sit around
    While you´re feeling down
    I could never see my self
    Chasing something else
    I would never get away
    Would you feel the same?
    Would you leave me
    Still uneasy
    Trapped inside of
    Torn in spite of
    I don´t want to, I don´t want to know
    Sometimes when I´m all alone
    Feeling what you´re thinking of
    And I could never sit around
    Chained to frozen ground
    I could never see my self
    Playing for something else
    And I could never walk away
    Would you feel the same?
    Would you leave me
    Still uneasy
    Trapped inside of
    Torn in spite of
