Changing genetic 'red light' to green holds promise for treating disease http://www.eurekalert.org/pub_releases/2011-06/uorm-cg061311.php
Researchers found a new way to surpass a common mutation that is estimated to cause a third of genetic disorders. The mutation causes the body to create shortened, disabled proteins, which lead to disease like cystic fibrosis, muscular dystrophy and cancer. The newly discovered approach directs the body to create normal, full-length proteins and could aid the development of treatment strategies ...
