23andMe uses a technology called genotyping, which identifies specific variants (or markers) within the genes that are associated with those diseases rather than sequencing the genes the way Myriad does — which makes the process much easier and, admittedly, less comprehensive in its analysis.
Myriad does not permit any biomedical researchers to perform full sequencing testing on those genes.
(Myriad has patents on several specific mutations and methods for detecting them, some extending into at least 2028 [ 58].) Even if Myriad's patents are not valid, Myriad does have its proprietary database, but the value of that database will diminish as publicly funded research identifies disease-associated and neutral mutations.

In this case, by contrast, Myriad did not create anything.
"Myriad did not invent the BRCA genes and should not control them.
Myriad did not release detailed results from the trial, but it appears the drug showed virtually no signs of effectiveness.
Justice Thomas's opinion agreed: While the company had found "important and useful" genes through its inquiries, Myriad did not "create or alter any of the genetic information encoded" in the genes, nor did it "create or alter the genetic structure of DNA".
Thus, unlike OncorMed, Myriad did not pledge to introduce BRCA testing only through a research pathway that would produce evidence of clinical utility through collaborations with public research institutions.
