Evolutionary Algorithms - The Role of Mutation and Recombination
2007-06-13 22:12:00 Despite decades of work in evolutionary algorithms, there remains a lot of uncertainty as to when it is beneficial or detrimental to use recombination or mutation. This book provides a characterization of the roles that recombination and mutation play in evolutionary algorithms. It integrates prior theoretical work and introduces new theoretical techniques for studying evolutionary algorithms.

Bird Flu might have mutated
2007-06-09 02:47:00 Asia-Pacific health ministers said on Friday that a "climate of fear" that accompanies the outbreak of infectious diseases such as bird flu could have a devastating impact on Asia's economies."The climate of fear that disease outbreaks such as avian influenza bring can rapidly sap the confidence and enterprise that underpins the economic dynamism of our region," Australian Health Minister Tony Abbott told the conference.Indonesia said on Wednesday the H5N1 virus might have undergone a mutation that allows it to jump more easily from poultry to humans, but stressed the findings were preliminary.Indonesia is struggling to contain the disease because millions of backyard chickens live in close proximity to humans across the archipelago. Contact with sick fowl is the most common way humans become infected with bird flu."The possibility of a pandemic arising from avian influenza presents a significant threat to human health security," said the health ministers.

The greatest mutational hazard on earth Fertile old (34+) men not women
2007-06-03 22:43:00 "I conclude that for a number of diseases the mutation rate increases with age and at a rate much faster than linear. This suggests that the greatest mutational health hazard in the human population at present is fertile old males. If males reproduced shortly after puberty (or the equivalent result were attained by early collection of sperm and cold storage for later use) the mutation rate could be greatly reduced. (I am not advocating this. For one thing, until many more diseases are studied, the generality of the conclusion is not established. Furthermore, one does not lightly suggest such socially disruptive procedures, even if there were a well-established health benefit.)"

A MAJOR INFLUENCE ON NEW MUTATIONS IN THE HUMAN GENE POOL IS RELATED TO THE
2007-05-26 22:07:00 "As a major influence on new mutations in the human gene pool is related to the advancing age of fathers, Dr. Malaspina first examined the relationship of schizophrenia and paternal age. Data showed a strong escalation in schizophrenia risk as the age of the father increased, accounting for over a quarter of the schizophrenia cases. Another of her studies found that fathers of sporadic schizophrenia cases were 5 years older than familial case fathers. If sporadic schizophrenia can originate from new mutations, then neurodevelopmental genes are reasonable candidates. Her study will examine if patients with sporadic schizophrenia, particularly those with fathers older than 35 at birth, show features found in other neurodevelopmental diseases that correlate with paternal age, such as craniofacial abnormalities, nonspecific cognitive deficits and delayed developmental milestones. However, if genes that arise from mutations are inherited by later generations, then some familial case...
POSSIBILITY THAT PATERNAL SMOKING CAUSES MUTATIONS IN SPERM THAT LEAD TO CA

Fisicoquimica, Facultad de Farmacia y Bioquimica, Universidad de BuenosAires, Argentina.Our previous studies have shown that men with low ascorbate intake have markedly increased oxo8dG in the DNA of their sperm. Because cigarette smoke is high in oxidants and depletes plasma and tissue antioxidants, oxidative DNA damage in sperm and tocopherol and ascorbate levels in seminal plasma were determined in smokers and non-smokers. The level in sperm DNA of oxo8dG, an oxidative lesion of guanine, was 50% higher in smokers compared to nonsmokers (p = 0.005). The concentration of alpha-tocopherol in seminal plasma was decreased in smokers by 32% (p = 0.03). Smoking and low antioxidant levels increase oxidative damage to sperm DNA. We discuss the possibility that paternal smoking causes mutations in sperm that lead t...

In his Perspective, Crow explains unexpected results from a study of a congenital disease called Apert's syndrome in which the likelihood of a child developing the disease increases with the age of the father (Goriely et al.). The results of the new work imply that rather than sperm having a higher mutation rate, the harmful mutation may be positively selected perhaps because it confers some benefit within the cellular environment of the testis.The author is in the Department of Genetics, University of Wisconsin, Madison, WI 53706, USA.

VANCOUVER, Canada, December 11, 2006 — University of British Columbia scientists, led by Marco Marra and Jan Friedman, have identified chromosomal abnormalities—genetic duplications and deletions as small as 37.6 kb—that are responsible for the development of mental retardation in children. Using whole-genome sampling analysis (WGSA) with Affymetrix Mapping 100K Arrays, the researchers pinpointed the probable genetic causes of mental retardation in at least twice as many children as conventional cytogenetic analysis, and were able to detect smaller abnormalities than can be detected using BAC-tiling-path arrays.

Mutation and psychosis: a suggested explanation of seasonality of birth.
2007-05-12 07:02:00 Psychol Med. 1987 Nov;17(4):821-8. Links Mutation and psychosis: a suggested explanation of seasonality of birth.Crow TJ.Division of Psychiatry, Northwick Park Hospital, Harrow, Middlesex. (1) Psychosis in general is, as suggested by Book (1953) and Lewis (1958) for schizophrenia, associated with a high rate of mutation. (2) The new mutations occur at a specific site (a 'hot-spot') in the genome and consist of rearrangements (e.g. transpositions or new insertions occurring as a result of unequal recombination) in a sequence which has a degree of potential autonomy, i.e. an integrated pathogen or 'virogene'. (3) The mutations occur specifically in the courses of gametogenesis in the male. By its location in the scrotal sac and its extended time course, gametogenesis in the male is susceptible to insertional mutagenesis as a function of variations in environmental temperature. Such temperature-dependent mutations are reflected in the seasonality of birth seen in both schizophrenic...
T.J. Crow (1987) argued that psychosis is caused by a high rate of mutation
2007-05-12 06:30:00 .The impression is that the fathers were relatively old too, their mean agebeing between 31 and 36 years. Allen et al. (1971) and Gillberg (1982)applied tentative reference groups, pointing at patient's fathers being 3-4years older than the control.When controlling for sex, social group, time of birth, and place ofbirth we found that the mean paternal age (see Table V) in the three diagnosticgroups was raised 0.94-2.05 years, but only statistically significant(p = .02) for the borderline childhood psychosis diagnostic group. Formothers (see Table IV) the respective figures varied between -0.06 and0.83 years and did not reach statistical significance. It is possible that earlierfindings of greater differences for mothers were influenced by lack of control of relevant confounders or was partly a consequence of raised paternalage (Hare & Moran, 1979).Our findings are open to numerous interpretations. Even thoughthere is a paucity of scientific data there may be psychological effects o...
We show that a male-biased mutation rate is likely to result in both a male
2007-05-12 02:50:00 Genetica. 1999;106(3):251-62. Links Age- and sex-distribution of the mutation load.Hansen TF, Price DK. Department of Botany, NTNU, Trondheim, Norway. thomas.hansen@bio.uio.noWe investigate the age and sex distribution of genetic fitness under mutation-selection balance by means of simple one-locus two-allele models. We find that the extent of age and sex variation in the mutation load is very dependent on the average effect of new mutations. If the average heterozygote selective effect of new mutations is large, then age and sex differences may constitute a significant fraction of the total load, and be significant as compared to standing genetic variation. Whether the mutation load will increase or decrease with age depends on the age- and sex-specific effects of the new mutations, and on the rate of accumulation of mutations in the germ line as individuals age. We argue that the load will most likely increase with age in animals with continuous germ-cell division throughout life...

DE NOVO POINT MUTATIONS IN SUCH GENES COULD EXPLAIN THE ADVANCED PATERNAL A
2007-05-10 21:38:00 Arthur L. Beaudet, M.D.The two studies1, 2 greatly strengthen the growing awareness that a substantial fraction of autism is caused by genomic rearrangements. Particularly in the case of deletions, loss-of-function point mutations in genes in these regions are likely to be important as well. Most of these are de novo mutations not present in the parents. The children with identifiable genetic abnormalities are often in the syndromic group, and the sex ratio for these individuals tends to be 1:1, except for X-linked disorders6, 7. De novo point mutations in such genes could explain the advanced paternal age association that has been reported for autism13. There is no evidence, however, that the risk of a de novo CNV is related to the age of either parent.

THIS IS HOGWASH THERE ARE SO MANY DIFFERENT GENETIC MUTATIONS INVOLVED IN A
2007-05-10 01:27:00 Wassink said. "Now we can move forward to more precisely pinpoint those genes, which may eventually help us develop better treatments for the disorder."Instead, the mutation is a germline mosaic -- meaning the deletion occurred only in the father's sperm cells when he himself was in gestation. As result, the father did not have autism, but his two children, both daughters, inherited from him a chromosome that was missing a small piece of DNA that contained neurexin 1. The daughters now have autismThere is no proof that this mosaicism did not occur later in this father's life. How old is this father and how old is the first daughter? No one bothers to report on the age of the father or the possible exposure of this father to spermatogonia altering chemicals or radiation. This is an example of product based science and an honest reporting of any specifics about the father's AGE!I think this "science" is a shameless exploitation of disorders that are brought about by known risk fa...

Is Autism a Disease? Is it a Disorder due to Various Gene Mutations?
2007-04-19 22:16:00 I had asked Dr. Bartzokis why risk of non-familial autism, schizophrenia, MS, and Alzheimer's risk increases with the age of the father at a person's birth."The issue is that the older man will have sperm that has undergone more divisions and therefore had more chances to have mutations. The COMPLEXITY of the myelination process makes it more vulnerable to mutations. I am not talking of one specific mutation. Many things could MANIFEST in the myelination or myelin breakdown process because it is so vulnerable - something going slightly wrong will impact it while it will not impact bone growth or the heart. A good example is ApoE4 - whatever else it may affect, it manifests in the reduced capacity of myelin repair and earlier onset of AD."

DOLORES MALASPINA INVESTIGATES CAN DE NOVO MUTATIONS CAUSE SCHIZOPHRENIA
2007-04-15 17:05:00 Dolores Malaspina, M.D., M.S.P.H. (Independent Investigator 2001) of New York State Psychiatric Institute, will examine the novel hypothesis that new genetic mutations can cause schizophrenia, and will attempt to define the clinical profile (phenotype) of this type of schizophrenia, known as sporadic schizophrenia (the birth of an affected individual into an unaffected family). This type of schizophrenia has previously been thought to originate from environmental factors that either act independently or interact with latent genes. Dr. Malaspina has conducted two preliminary studies which support the new mutations hypothesis. As a major influence on new mutations in the human gene pool is related to the advancing age of fathers, Dr. Malaspina first examined the relationship of schizophrenia and paternal age. Data showed a strong escalation in schizophrenia risk as the age of the father increased, accounting for over a quarter of the schizophrenia cases. Another of her studies fo... |
