Killer Zombie Genes!

It sounds like the title of one of those lame "SyFy Original Movies", doesn't it?

But it is not. Dead genes apparently get switched back on and if so, bad things happen:
Some of those genes, surprised geneticists reported Thursday, can rise from the dead like zombies, waking up to cause one of the most common forms of muscular dystrophy. This is the first time, geneticists say, that they have seen a dead gene come back to life and cause a disease.
"The Zombies Inside Us!" Saturday at 9 on the SyFy Channel!
