WASHINGTON, Aug. 15 -- The U.S. Department of Health & Human Services' National Institutes of Health issued the following news release:
Using a new, rapid and less expensive DNA sequencing strategy, scientists have discovered genetic alterations that account for most cases of Kabuki syndrome, a rare disorder that causes multiple birth defects and mental retardation. Instead of sequencing the entire human genome, the new approach sequences just the exome, the 1-2 percent o . . .
