Document Summary
Condition in which a portion of the heart becomes thickened without an obvious cause. This results in the heart being less able to pump blood e ectively. Hcm is most commonly inherited from a person"s parents. Symptoms vary from none to feeling tired, leg swelling, and shortness of breath. Complications include heart failure, an irregular heartbeat, and sudden cardiac death. #women who carry a genetic variation known as brca-1 are seven times more likely to get breast cancer. #persons missing three nucleotides (ctt) at a very speci c spot in their genome, have cystic. A composite genome from several di erent people (i. e. developed in human genome project). Development of drugs tailored to speci c subpopulations based on their genetic. 1-bac to bac (map based methods): the rst method t be employed in human dna sequencing. It is slow but has a high precision.
