Chromosome sequencing: 7 up
Human chromosome 7 has joined chromosomes 14, 20, 21, 22 and Y in the 'full sequence published' category. Chromosome 7 was the focus of much attention from geneticists during the search for the cystic fibrosis gene (CFTR). Other diseases linked with this chromosome include Gilles de la Tourette syndrome, retinosis pigmentosa and cancers including Wilms' tumour. Knowledge of the sequence of this chromosome, made available with unrestricted access as it has been compiled, has led to the identificationof other disease genes including Pendred syndrome.
