11.   But these public-domain tools tend to be difficult to use, and limited in their application to specific gene data bases.

12.   Genome Therapeutics uses its technology to discover and identify the function of specific genes associated with major diseases.

13.   He and his colleagues have been working on genome scans to link personality traits with specific genes and genetic patterns.

14.   He used the power of new molecular, genetic and cellular methods to take viruses apart and identify the functions of specific genes.

15.   However, if the specific gene in this form of the disease is identified, doctor may be able to tailor treatment to the specific gene alteration involved.

16.   In their experiments, the researchers inserted two specific genes from the core of the AIDS virus into the weakened polio virus.

17.   It is also the first known report of a link between a specific gene and a specific normal personality trait, Ebstein said in an interview.

18.   It lacks a specific gene.

19.   It will also attempt to narrow the area of the link to a specific gene or genes.

20.   Many if not all of these behaviors are controlled by specific genes, chiefly two known as fruitless and dissatisfaction.
