In the world of rare genetic diseases, exome and genome sequencing are two powerful tools used to make a diagnosis. A recent addition to the toolkit, RNA sequencing, has been demonstrated to help researchers narrow down disease candidate variants identified first on exome and genome sequencing.

The partners will also examine the transcriptomes of around 60 participants – in other words the messenger RNA coded for by genes that in turn is used to produce proteins – and carry out bioinformatic analyses to tease out new pathways involved in asthma.

Real-world disease and parasite monitoring is often hampered by the inability of traditional approaches to easily sample broad geographical areas and large numbers of individuals. This can result in patchy data that fall short of what researchers need to anticipate and address outbreaks.
