Ring Chromosome 20 Syndrome, or (R)20, is an ultra-rare form of epilepsy with a devastating impact – yet despite huge leaps forward in gene sequencing in recent years, diagnoses are going down instead of up. The post Ring 20: Could the rare disease get left behind by next-generation gene sequencing? appeared first on.

The CRISPR-Cas9 gene editing system uses a programmable single guide RNA sequence (sgRNA) to find and bind to specific regions of DNA and the Cas9 nuclease induces double strand breaks at these target regions of the genome. The researchers reported very few unwanted deletions or insertions at the sites of gene integration.
