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.

Expanding upon the CRISPR-Cas9 gene editing system, researchers at MIT have designed a new technique called PASTE gene editing that can cut out defective genes and replace them with new genes in a safer and more efficient way. The PASTE gene editing technique was recently published in Nature Biotechnology.

Rather, developers of diagnostic tests and, indeed of any product that relies on free access to gene sequence and other biomarker information, should pay also close attention, as PERA would overturn longstanding judicial precedent. By 2010, about 2000 isolated human genes had been patented in the U.S.

Novartis has shouldered its way into the in vivo gene editing category via a deal with US biotech Precision BioSciences, focused on a therapy for sickle cell disease (SCD). Precision Bio aims to address those challenges using its proprietary ARCUS nuclease platform, which is designed to insert a transgene with high accuracy into the genome.
