Patients’ Genetic Profiles Plummet in Price as DNA Sequencing Technologies Advance

Scientists now believe that nearly all diseases have at least some genetic component. For example, some people have a genetic predisposition for breast cancer or heart disease. The understanding of human genetics is hoped to lead to breakthroughs in therapies for many illnesses. Organizations worldwide are experimenting with personalized drugs that are designed to provide appropriate therapies based on a patient’s personal genetic makeup or their lack of specific genes.

The DNA sequencing (genetic testing) of the genes within a patient is the process of determining the order of DNA nucleotides, or bases, in the genome—that is, the entire DNA makeup of the patient. The nucleotides are described on the order of A, C, G and T. The human genome consists of about 3 billion of these genetic letters. Once the genome has been sequenced, much work remains to be done for fully understanding human genetics. Scientists must analyze and translate the strings of A, C, G and T into usable knowledge, which requires sophisticated analytical software.
