Supreme Court rules BRCA gene patents invalid
The court ruled that isolating naturally occurring DNA cannot be patented, opening access to BRCA1 and BRCA2 testing and potentially lowering costs. Myriad held patents on the two genes, but the decision strikes them down while allowing some patent types to remain valid. DNA Traits, part of Gene By Gene, plans BRCA testing at $995 soon after the ruling.
