  • Publication number: 20230340575
    Abstract: This disclosure provides methods and systems useful in array-based analysis of mixed nucleic acid populations, including for multiplex genotyping of a mixed nucleic acid sample and for detecting differences in copy number of a target polynucleotide and/or a target chromosome (e.g., microdeletions, duplications and aneuploidies). The disclosure also provides methods and systems useful in the diagnosis of genetic abnormalities in a mixed nucleic acid population taken non-invasively from an organism, such as a sample of blood, plasma, serum, urine stool or saliva. The disclosed methods and systems find use in multiple applications, including prenatal testing and cancer diagnostics.

The disclosure also provides methods and systems useful in the diagnosis of genetic abnormalities in a mixed nucleic acid population taken non-invasively from an organism, such as a sample of blood, plasma, serum, urine stool or saliva. The disclosed methods and systems find use in multiple applications, including prenatal testing and cancer diagnostics. The disclosure is based on the hybridisation of amplified fragments from the sample, e.g. a maternal sample, which may employ molecular inversion probes MIP to an oligonucleotide array and the detection of the alleles based on different signals from the different alleles of the SNP.

  • Publication number: 20210265006
    Abstract: Provided herein are methods and associated compositions, kits, systems, devices and instruments useful for genetic analysis where there is/are a sequence(s) similar to the gene of interest in a sample. In the methods, a combined copy number for related genes (e.g., a gene of interest and its pseudogene) can be determined via an assay. In addition, relative amounts of the related genes, i.e., a ratio of the related genes can be determined via the assay. Using the data of the combined copy number and the ratio of the related genes, the genotype of the gene of interest (as well as its pseudogene(s), if desired) can be determined with high accuracy.

  • Patent number: 6611828
    Abstract: Disclosed are methods, media and systems for graphically displaying computer-based biomolecular sequence information. Generally, biomolecular sequence information may be graphically depicted in a variety of different forms in accordance with the present invention. The sequence information may be composed of nucleotide or amino acid sequence information or both. The graphical depictions may be in several different formats providing different information relating to the sequences, and may be displayed in one or more screens of a computer user interface.
