Cashing in on the Human Genome Project. By Linda Pannozzo. HighGrader
http://www.grievousangels.com/highgrader/2000/genome2000.html

Extractions: -from Biopiracy: The Plunder of Nature and Knowledge, by Vandana Shiva. Earlier this year a British woman was the first person in the world to try to do something seemingly unthinkable. Donna Rawlinson MacLean tried to patent herself. Her application for the patent was titled "Myself" and her reasons for trying to do it were as good as any. That "unauthorized exploitation" MacLean was talking about is quickly becoming a force to be reckoned with, as genomics companies hustle to profit from the bits of information that come together to form a blueprint for life - our genetic code. And the potential profits are staggering. Sales of DNA based products and technology are projected to exceed $45 billion by 2009.

Extractions: This is chapter 1 from: Gert, Bernard et al. 1996. "Morality and the New Genetics: A Guide for Students and Health Care Providers.". Boston, MA: Jones and Bartlett, Publishers . Used with permission of the author. Summary Let's Even Consider Sequencing! Antiquity Enter the Department of Energy ... DNA and Genetics Unite This chapter summarizes human genetics and its history with simple descriptions of modes of inheritance using the commonly-used terms from the genetic literature. It also describes current efforts to create genetic maps and to sequence the 3 billion bases in the human genome. An Appendix in the back of this volume summarizes the genetic principles of inheritance in humans. Awareness of the inheritance of both human appearance and behavioral characteristics dates from ancient times. In a similar vein, selective breeding of domestic animals and plants, both for greater yields and for ease of management, produced strains which maintained these better characteristics in subsequent generations. The evolution of today's corn from the minuscule wild maize of pre-Colombian America is one excellent example. Others include the draft horse, both beef and dairy cattle, and especially the various breeds of dogs for different uses such as herding, retrieving, pointing or simply companionship. These represent what can be done with intentional genetic manipulation employing appropriate selection for physical and behavioral traits.

Extractions: While indeed an historical moment, the announcement on February 12, 2001 of the mapping of a "working draft" of the human genome has been treated in the literature as a beginning - a new way to think about biology and the ways we apply biological concepts to medicine. Issues of both Science and Nature magazines celebrated the event by establishing interdisciplinary Web sites where readers can access essays on aspects of genome mapping and link directly to databases to search for more information on the topics. The following essay and bibliography, updated online since its original print publication in 1991, can serve as a framework for accessing and evaluating information on the Human Genome Project. "It is a rare and wonderful moment when success teaches us humility, and this, I argue, is precisely the moment at which we find ourselves at the end of the twentieth century." [V. Keller 2000]
Jewish Law - Commentary/Opinion
Commentary from the Jewish Law (journal) site that deals with questions that Judaism raises in connection with the Human Genome Project
http://www.jlaw.com/Commentary/genome.html

Extractions: Judaism and the Human Genome Project by Richard Greenberg "Today," President Clinton declared at a recent White House ceremony, "we are learning the language in which God created life." No, he didn't mean Hebrew, although that would have been a nice touch. Clinton was referring to the human genome, the multi-billion-letter "operating manual" for homo sapiens that scientists have finally deciphered surely the most eagerly awaited literary release this side of Harry Potter. This cracking of the genetic code promises to revolutionize medicine, but it also raises a host of moral and ethical questions that Judaism speaks to. The genome, for example, will no doubt help us better understand human behavior-and misbehavior-by identifying its genetic components. Consider where that might take us. Fast-forward to the year 2015: Is it farfetched to imagine, say, enterprising defense attorneys concocting "genetic defenses" for their clients? Judaism wouldn't buy it. Our tradition maintains that biology is not destiny, and therefore holds people accountable for their actions-whether or not they have whatever syndrome is momentarily fashionable. There are legitimate mitigating factors, of course, such as mental incompetence, but Judaism otherwise consistently affirms the ability of people to exercise their free will and make moral choices. In fact, in general the Talmud says a person is always liable for his actions, whether awake or asleep. Unfortunately, Judaism's position runs counter to a growing societal tendency to diminish personal accountability, often using medical or psychological "explanations" to excuse evil deeds. Does the term "Twinkie defense" ring a bell? That argument was used in a celebrated 1978 case by an attorney who maintained that his client was driven to commit murder by his addiction to junk food.

Introduction - The Human Genome Project
Introduction The Human Genome Project. National Center for Human Genome Research, National Institutes of Health. Why do the Human Genome Project?
http://www.accessexcellence.org/AB/IE/Intro_The_Human_Genome.html

Extractions: National Center for Human Genome Research, National Institutes of Health. "New Tools for Tomorrow's Health Research." Bethesda, MD: Department of Health and Human Services, 1992. Since the beginning of time, people have yearned to explore the unknown, chart where they have been, and contemplate what they have found. The maps we make of these treks enable the next explorers to push ever farther the boundaries of our knowledge - about the earth, the sea, the sky, and indeed, ourselves. On a new quest to chart the innermost reaches of the human cell, scientists have now set out on biology's most important mapping expedition: the Human Genome Project. Its mission is to identify the full set of genetic instructions contained inside our cells and to read the complete text written in the language of the hereditary chemical DNA (deoxyribonucleic acid). As part of this international project, biologists, chemists, engineers, computer scientists, mathematicians, and other scientists will work together to plot out several types of biological maps that will enable researchers to find their way through the labyrinth of molecules that define the physical traits of a human being.
