'Buffer genes' may protect these 13 people from rare genetic diseases
To test their idea, Friend, Schadt, Mount Sinai genomics expert Rong Chen, and co-workers gathered genetic data from more than 589,000 generally healthy adults who had donated their DNA for research. The bulk of them400,000 people whose genomes had been scanned for genetic markerscame from 23andMe
