Looks Like an Early General Election


One swallow may not a summer make, but it really does look as if the election campaign has started.

  • Firstly, Labour have kicked off making false claims about me on my record relating to Anti-Social Behaviour.
  • Secondly, Moazzem Begg has been released.
  • Thirdly, the Labour Party has gone over the top in the council chamber. There is a pot of money £8M that is not spent. We want to keep it to deal with the council deficit that Labour left. Labour want to spend it and make the council's financial problems worse.

Its the long genes that stop working

People who read my blog will be aware that I have for some time argued that most (if not all) diseases of aging are caused by cells not being able to produce enough of the right proteins. What happens is that certain genes stop functioning because of a metabolic imbalance. I was, however, mystified as to why it was always particular genes that stopped working. Recently, however, there have been three papers produced: Aging is associated with a systemic length-associated transcriptome imbalance Age- or lifestyle-induced accumulation of genotoxicity is associated with a generalized shutdown of long gene transcription and Gene Size Matters: An Analysis of Gene Length in the Human Genome From these it is obvious to see that the genes that stop working are the longer ones. To me it is therefore obvious that if there is a shortage of nuclear Acetyl-CoA then it would mean that the probability of longer Genes being transcribed would be reduced to a greater extent than shorter ones.
