Researchers from Aarhus University and elsewhere have solved a major medical problem in relation to our ability to transplant organs from pigs into humans. More precisely, they have switched off some viral genes in the pigs’ DNA that would otherwise have made it impossible to e.g. replace a human heart with a pig heart.

The shared Danish genome has been mapped

Danish researchers from three universities have analysed the genomes of fifty families and created access to very precise knowledge about how the genome of a healthy, average Dane looks. The new knowledge is called the Danish Reference Genome and it can increase our understanding of hereditary diseases and support the development of personalised…
