Why a recent advancement is a giant leap for human genomics

Drug Discovery World

The remaining 8% of the genome was often referred to as the dark matter of the genome or sometimes even ‘Junk DNA’ 2. The sequencing technology relied on could only yield sequences of relatively short DNA fragments, so the assembly of sequences from highly repetitive regions was a huge challenge.

How Lume Whole Body Deodorant Was Inspired by a Genetic Disease

PLOS: DNA Science

A Compelling Need I was delighted to discover that the inspiration for Lume is a rare, recessive genetic disease, trimethylaminuria (TMAU), aka “fish odor syndrome.” The earliest patent I found was issued in late 2009, for “Products and Methods for Reducing Malodor from the Pudendum.” ” Lady parts.
