A study to examine recessively inherited genome-wide DNA sequences has for the first time discovered a potential link with Britain’s biggest killer, Coronary Artery Disease (CAD).  The research led by a team from the University of Leicester is the first time that recessively inherited DNA sequences in the whole genome called Runs of homozygosity were examined for a connection to the disease.  The team state … Continue reading Researchers identify the link between inherited DNA sequences and heart disease.
