Whole-genome sequencing: ready for prime time?
Rapid technological advances in DNA sequencing are facilitating the perception that whole-genome sequencing (WGS) will soon be available as a routine clinical diagnostic—and predictive—test. Current clinical testing is typically diagnostic, focusing on single genes or small gene panels, identifying a small number of variants per patient, and yet requiring nontrivial effort and expertise to deli...

متن کاملReady for Prime Time
Opening of the voltage-dependent Ca 2 channels permits influx of Ca across the plasma membrane, triggering diverse physiological processes. These channels are widely distributed in the cardiovascular system, constituting the main route for Ca entry essential for excitation and contraction. Ten unique 1 subunits, grouped in 3 families (CaV1, CaV2, and CaV3), that encode the low-voltage– activate...
متن کاملReady for the Prime Time?
Metabolomics is one of the most rapidly growing areas of contemporary science. Although classic genetics aims to link variations in the DNA sequence directly to distinct phenotypes, “-omic” technologies allow us to shift the focus from the specific gene to the actual effects of the gene itself. Because neither the transcriptional or protein profile can be directly correlated with metabolite con...
متن کاملPharmacogenomics--ready for prime time?
Pharmacogenomics is receiving a great deal of attention in scientific circles and, increasingly, in the popular press because of the promise of personalized medicine. Short of being able to cure an illness or to prevent one, every clinician’s dream is to offer patients a precisely targeted drug at a precisely calibrated dose to address a specific ailment — and to do so without wreaking havoc on...
