What else does that gene do? tread carefully. Yes. A lot of the genes in the human body seem to be stacked together like a house of cards. Sometimes when you pull one out, you can collapse the entire stack.
Very tricky business. Wouldn't try disabling this gene for anyone but someone with no other choice left.

To bad this did not come about before Steve Jobs lost his life, Apple has not been the same without his vision and creativity!!!! When watching a movie about Steve Jobs, I learned he was a "fruitarian." Someone who eats nothing but fruit. Apparently he ate fruit for every meal.
Fructose is a sugar found in fruit. What does the pancreas do again? Oh yes, it regulates blood sugar. What would be happening to the blood sugar of someone who eats nothing but fruit? I would imagine it would be going through massive spikes, and taxing the pancreas tremendously.
The thought occurred to me that perhaps this "creative" Jobs fellow caused his own pancreatic cancer by pursuing his idiot diet. As young as he was, it just seems probable to me.

Reading some of these posts is leading me to believe that some folks would bitc- if they hung you with a new rope.

The mistake is thinking that genes do just one thing.
I don't believe for a minute that they do.

So how do you yank out that one gene from a gazillion different cancer cells? That’s some mighty fine tuned laser shots.

Steve Jobs elected to go with alternative medicine. He had a neuroendocrine tumor and could have been easily cured with surgery. But he waited too long and it spread to his liver.

“MAY”... or may be behind the instant spread of an epidemic worse than ebola. Whichever.
