Australian Jack Irishâex-lawyer and sometime debt collector, cabinetmaker and barflyâgets a double introduction as MacAdam/Cage releases his first two adventures (number two is Black Tide) this month.
But ever since then, the estimated number has been steadily shrinking. A new study suggests that the human genome could contain as few as 19,000 protein-coding genes, fewer than nematode worms. In 2001, the initial sequence of the human genome cut the figure dramatically.
Summary. The protein encoded by this gene is a methylcytosine dioxygenase that catalyzes the conversion of methylcytosine to 5-hydroxymethylcytosine. The encoded protein is involved in myelopoiesis, and defects in this gene have been associated with several myeloproliferative disorders.ummary.
