Picked up my copy of What's In Your Genome by Larry Moran at #AntigoneBooks in #Tucson on Friday. Not sure I can read it for a couple of months but keen to write about it once I do. Congrats to Larry on publishing, and it looks nice! Book pictured on my Kona in the littered parking area.

“Cameron's condition is caused by a rare variation in the FAAH-OUT gene, which was found and named in 2019 by Cox and his colleagues at UCL. It was uncovered in a part of the human genome historically thought to hold only 'junk' DNA that doesn't do anything useful.” #dna #junkdna #FAAHOUT #epigenetics #geneadons #isogg

Esistono tali sequenze?
