  Human chromosomes 9 and 10 completed
Chromosome 9 harbours four genes that can cause sex-reversal, all the human interferon type 1 genes (interferon is important in suppressing cancer development and in resisting virus infection), a gene implicated in neurodegenerative disease (CHAC), as well as a gene (abl) that is involved in 90 per cent of chronic myeloid leukaemia (CML) cases.
Also of interest is the number of genes sharing the same space; 15 per cent of genes on chromosome 10 are found as overlapping pairs: conventionally it is thought that each gene occupies a unique region of DNA sequence.
The two chromosome sequences point to the rich variety in our genome: chromosome 9 is peppered with regions copied from elsewhere in the genome; chromosome 10 is rich in overlapping genes.

 Chromosome 10 - Genetics Home Reference
Chromosome 10 is one of the 23 pairs of chromosomes in humans.
Chromosome 10 spans about 135 million base pairs (the building material of DNA) and represents between 4 and 4.5 percent of the total DNA in cells.
Genes on chromosome 10 are among the estimated 20,000 to 25,000 total genes in the human genome.

Chromosome 10 carries genes linked to cancer and epilepsy, as well as genes associated with susceptibility to diseases like diabetes, schizophrenia, obesity, and Alzheimer’s.

 New evidence for Alzheimer's gene on chromosome   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-15)
Researchers found evidence for a gene on human chromosome 10 that, in combination with the previously identified Alzheimer's gene APOE E4, significantly increases the risk for people with family histories of Alzheimer's to develop the disease.
The precise location of the new susceptibility gene could not yet be determined, but it appears to be in a small segment of chromosome 10.
"Though a draft sequence of the human genetic code was announced almost a year ago, the sequence for this portion of chromosome 10 still has holes in it, which impedes progress in pinpointing the gene," Zubenko was quoted as saying in the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette.
