DNA acquires sporadic mutations. In simple terms, the are the mutations which were not there in beginning but due to defective DNA replication error correction, gets into the DNA) as we age. For e.g., Retinoblastoma is a genetic disease, but 95% of it is sporadic. MS is a disease where the protective covering of neuron's conduction channel (axon) called myelin is lost. This in some cases is attributed to the loss of myelin basic protein. Here the researcher has reintroduced the gene for this protein and successfully expressed it as well.

How do you think these are regulated? My hunch is that they do some kind of backprop.

The mathematical basis for deterministic quantum mechanics [ arxiv.org/pdf/quant-ph/0604008 ] Author: Gerard 't Hooft [He shared the 1999 Nobel Prize in Physics with Martinus J. G. Veltman "for elucidating the quantum structure of electroweak interactions".]
If there exists a classical, i.e. deterministic theory underlying quantum mechanics, an explanation must be found of the fact that the Hamiltonian, which is defined to be the operator that generates evolution in time, is bounded from below. The mechanism that can produce exactly such a constraint is identified in this paper. It is the fact that not all classical data are registered in the quantum description. Large sets of values of these data are assumed to be indistinguishable, forming equivalence classes. It is argued that this should be attributed to information loss, such as what one might suspect to happen during the formation and annihilation of virtual black holes.
The nature of the equivalence classes is further elucidated, as it follows from the positivity of the Hamiltonian. Our world is assumed to consist of a very large number of subsystems that may be regarded as approximately independent, or weakly interacting with one another. As long as two (or more) sectors of our world are treated as being independent, they all must be demanded to be restricted to positive energy states only. What follows from these considerations is a unique definition of energy in the quantum system in terms of the periodicity of the limit cycles of the deterministic model.

Well the field of Synthetic biology is picking up fast. http://computationalbiologynews.blogspot.com/2007/ 06/sythetic-biology-milestone-genome.html talks about a recent work in this field.
SVM is not that great with multiclass problems. Essentially it does one-vs-all in n-fold fashion. Feature selection is very naive too.

IIT, Madras is at Rank 44 and IIT, Bombay has been honored too.
So people like Einstein, Hawking and Witten who were/are trying to find Grand-Unified-Theory were not doing science?

Are you talking about alleles or reverse complement strand?
