Genes

Each individual has 22 pairs of chromosomes and 2 sex chromosomes (XX for woman and XY for man)
Genes are defined units located on the chromosomes always in the same place and responsible for the hereditary characters.

Other elements of DNA that genes, which are not coding, play an essential role in regulating the activity (expression) of genes and in the onset of a certain disease, according to the works of the CIFRAN (Encyclopedia Of DNA Elements). 442 researchers from 32 laboratories around the world participate in this project, launched in 2003, which aims to characterize all the functional elements of the human genome.

Most DNA that is not coding and constitutes millions of "switches" that control the activity of genes. Human DNA is made up of 3.3 billion elements of which only 2% or 3% are coding, providing instructions for the synthesis of body's proteins.

The book informs about the new possibilities of diagnosis and prognosis of related diseases of the human genome, facilitates the basic knowledge of genetics and updates with scientific rigor, but in a didactic and understandable way (spanishg).

Gene therapy is a therapeutic strategy that involves getting genes into the cells or tissues of an individual to treat a disease. The gene therapy contemplates replacing or supplementing a defective mutant gene with a functional gene or making a protein whose activity would have a therapeutic impact.
