Understand class 1 mutations: https://bit.ly/3LoYZSn
Protein production, or class 1, mutations stop the CFTR protein from being made. These include nonsense and splicing mutations, found in about 10% of people with cystic fibrosis.

Screenshot of Table 1: Quality control metrics of long-read (PacBio Revio) and short-read (Illumina Novaseq) genome sequencing data of cystic fibrosis patient samples Variant counts are based on regions defined by the genome-in-a-bottle consortium. bp, base pairs; CF1, whole-blood sample; CF2, newborn dried blood spot sample; DBS, dried blood spot; Gb, gigabases; het/nonref-hom, heterozygosity to nonreference homozygosity ratio; indels, insertions and deletions; KB, kilobases; M, million; SNPs, single-nucleotide polymorphisms; Ti/Tv, transition/transversion ratio.

Sad day for science 😔
"Some scientists search for a solution to a problem and then move on, other will just keep digging". meeting organizer Gergely Szakacs about our evening plenary speaker, who will talk about a channel at a transporter meeting 😉
