Novel Computational tool helps analyze complex genetic regions

GeneDx (Nasdaq: WGS), a leader in delivering improved health outcomes through genomic and clinical insights, today published a paper in Nature Methods, titled “Multiscale analysis of pangenomes enables improved representation of genomic diversity for repetitive and clinically relevant genes,” in which researchers developed a new computational tool, the PanGenome Research-Tool Kit (PGR-TK), for scalable analysis of clinically relevant genes that were previously too complex to analyze.
