Hunter's claims about the presence of a gene or pseudogene at the human chromosome 2 fusion site like this one:
"Genes shouldn't be there, regardless of expression level, and TFs shouldn't be binding there"
...kinda miss the point that the gene that "shouldn't be there"-- DDX11L2 is precisely the gene you'd expect if the fusion represents telomeric DNA:
http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc........2705379
"During a project aimed to analyze genes located in the telomeric region of the long arm of the human X chromosome, we have identified a novel transcript family, DDX11L, members of which map to 1pter, 2q13/14.1, 2qter, 3qter, 6pter, 9pter/9qter, 11pter, 12pter, 15qter, 16pter, 17pter, 19pter, 20pter/20qter, Xpter/Xqter and Yqter."
ter (the ends) and 2q13/14.1!
So, DDX11L2 is part of a gene family that otherwise reside in subtelomeres, but there is is.....smack in the middle of human chromosome 2. |
Yep. Cornhole is censoring posts, blocking pro-science ones and letting through idiots like Mapou. He will allow the occasional pro-evolution post only if he thinks it can used to to provide fodder for a "gotcha" Creationist answer.
In his latest Chromosome 2 fisaco he also offer up this bit of Creation "science"
Quote | Corny: "You can see this article for the details on why the evolutionary account is not feasible." |
Where "this article" is a link back to Tomkins' original stupidity on ICR :p
A poster named Glenn provided a detailed smackdon of Tompkins here. Corny wouldn't touch it but blew off the criticisms as "tedious".
What an assclown. |
I have noticed that Hunter's last few blog posts have not been simultaneously posted st UD. Has he fallen into disfavour with Barry? |
They began eating their own a while ago.
