A security analyst, Ben Okezie, has advised the military authorities to carry out a deoxyribo nucleic acid testing or profiling on the remains of Boko Haram leader, Abubakar Shekau, in order to put an end to the controversy surrounding his demise. He described as embarrassing the claims by the military and counter-claims by the Boko Haram sect on Shekau. The military had claimed to have killed Shekau in 2013 and a terrorist who had been impersonating the deceased insurgent last week in Konduga, Borno State. But another impostor, in a video released online, dismissed the Armys claims.The man claiming to be Shekau said he was still alive, adding that the missing military jet was shot down by his group. But Okezie, in a telephone interview with our correspondent on Monday, described as embarrassing the claims by the military that it had killed Shekau three times, noting that the only way to end the matter was to carry out a DNA profiling on his body, trace his family members and ask them to identify him. The DNA profiling (or genetic fingerprinting) is a technique employed by forensic scientists to assist in the identification of individuals by their respective DNA material that … Continue reading →

HARTFORD -- DNA from accused murderer Carl "Hood" Small was found in the SUV of slain bank teller Christopher Donato, a forensic scientist testified Monday. Nicholas Yang, a forensic science examiner at the state police crime lab, said Small is a contributor to the DNA found in blood on the SUV's steering wheel and driver's side door. The 2000 Chevy Blazer was among the things missing when Donato, 30, was found fatally stabbed in his city apartment near the West Hartford line on June 18, 2012. It later was found parked near a Vine Street apartment in the city's North End where Small, of Bloomfield, used to stay. Monday was the fourth day of testimony in Superior Court. The trial is expected to wrap up this week. Yang was one of a long line of forensic scientists to testify about evidence found in Donato's apartment, his SUV and in the Vine Street apartment. He testified that Small, 34, cannot be eliminated as a possible contributor to DNA found on the handle of a mop that police said was used in an attempt to clean up the bloody scene. But Yang was unable to conclude that Small's DNA was in several … Continue reading →

Scientists have taken pictures of the BRCA2 protein for the first time, showing how it works to repair damaged DNA. Mutations in the gene that encodes BRCA2 are well known for raising the risk of breast cancer and other cancers. Although the protein was known to be involved in DNA repair, its shape and mechanism have been unclear, making it impossible to target with therapies. Researchers at Imperial College London and the Cancer Research UK London Research Institute purified the protein and used electron microscopy to reveal its structure and how it interacts with other proteins and DNA. The results are published today in Nature Structural and Molecular Biology. Around one in 1000 people in the UK have a mutation in the BRCA2 gene. The lifetime risk of breast cancer for women with BRCA2 mutations is 40 to 85 per cent, depending on the mutation, compared with around 12 per cent for the general population. Many women who test positive for BRCA1 and BRCA2 mutations choose to undergo surgery to reduce their risk of breast cancer. Mutations can also raise the risk of other cancers, such as ovarian, prostate and pancreatic cancer. The BRCA1 and BRCA2 genes encode proteins involved … Continue reading →
