Genetic variants that cause rare disorders may remain elusive even after expansive testing, such as exome sequencing. The diagnostic yield of genome sequencing, particularly after a negative ...

Gene therapy (introducing genetic material into living cells to fix, replace, enhance, or block a faulty gene) is rapidly gaining traction as a strategy for the treatment of genetic diseases. The ...

Cornell (NY, USA) researchers have found that a new DNA sequencing technology can be used to study how transposons move within and bind to the genome. Transposons play critical roles in immune ...
