Illumina Inc COM-WHEN ISSUED

New AI algorithm accurately deciphers pathogenic regulatory genetic variants in the noncoding regions of the human genome at scale for the first time
SAN DIEGO, May 29, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- Illumina Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/ILMN#NASDAQ">ILMN</a>) today unveiled PromoterAI, a new AI algorithm that accurately deciphers pathogenic regulatory genetic variants in the noncoding regions of the human genome. A study <a href="https://c212.net/c/link/?t=0&amp;l=en&amp;o=4438250-1&amp;h=2291622851&amp;u=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.science.org%2Fdoi%2F10.1126%2Fscience.ads7373&amp;a=published+today">published today</a> in Science illustrates how this deep learning technology discovered regulatory variants in noncoding "promoter" segments that contribute up to 6% of the genetic causes of rare diseases. By turning data into insights, this technology is expected to help researchers accelerate new breakthroughs in diagnosis for rare diseases.
Currently, only about 30% of rare disease patients receive an accurate diagnosis from exome sequencing. For many patients, insights may be hidden in what are known as "noncoding regions," which comprise over 98% of the genome and may hold the key to increasing the diagnostic rate.
PromoterAI will be accessible through Illumina Connected Software and it is available today as part of DRAGEN&#x2122; secondary analysis. Precomputed PromoterAI scores for all human promoter single-nucleotide variants are freely available for academic and noncommercial research use. Illumina Connected Software supports seamless integration with next-generation sequencing and array workflows for genomics and multiomics. Researchers, bioinformaticians, and clinical geneticists can use Illumina Connected Software to prioritize variants that are important to a case, gain critical insights, and accelerate their precision medicine dry lab operations.

Cathie Wood, the founder, CEO, and CIO of Ark Invest, underscored the application of artificial intelligence in the healthcare sector by sharing new research by Mass General Brigham, citing the discovery of cancer survival using facial photograph analysis.
What Happened: Wood reiterated her earlier point on the &#8220;profound application&#8221; of AI in the healthcare industry, comparing it to the implementation of the same in autonomous vehicles and humanoid robots.
She quoted Dr. Peter H. Diamandis, the founder of Abundance360 and XPRIZE, who highlighted Mass General Brigham research.
According to the researchers at Mass General Brigham, AI was not only able to estimate a person&#8217;s biological age, but also improve cancer survival outcomes predictions by just analyzing a facial photograph.
Thus, this marked another small milestone in using AI within the healthcare industry.

Genetic Data From 23andMe Ends Up With This Company In $256 Million Deal

<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/topic/carl-icahn">Carl Icahn is</a> making bold moves from the lab to the tarmac.
According to his latest <a href="http://edgar.secdatabase.com/619/153949725001390/filing-main.htm">13F filing</a> for the quarter ended March 31, the billionaire activist investor significantly boosted his holdings in Illumina Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/ILMN#NASDAQ">ILMN</a>) and JetBlue Airways Corp. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/JBLU#NASDAQ">JBLU</a>) &#8211; a striking bet on both biotech and airlines.

<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Three Of Icahn&#8217;s Top Holdings Are Healthcare Stocks</h2>
Icahn increased his stake in Illumina by 450%, adding 180,000 shares to bring his total holding to 220,000 shares. That holding now represents 0.25% of his $7 billion portfolio, up from just 0.07% previously. 
The genomics giant ranks 13th in Icahn's portfolio and was one of his top percentage gainers this quarter. The move signals renewed conviction in the embattled DNA sequencing company, which has been under pressure amid boardroom battles and regulatory scrutiny.
Icahn's top three healthcare holdings now include Bausch Health Companies Inc (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/BHC#NYSE">BHC</a>), Bausch + Lomb Corp (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/BLCO#NYSE">BLCO</a>) and Illumina &#8211; a diverse mix that spans pharma, optics, and biotech.
But that wasn't the only high-flyer in Icahn's crosshairs.
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">JetBlue Boost &#8211; Turnaround Potential?</h2>
He nearly doubled down on JetBlue, boosting his stake by 89.66% with a purchase of nearly 15.9 million shares. 
Icahn now owns 33.6 million shares of the airline, worth over $162 million, making it the 7th largest position in his portfolio. That's up from 1.88% of the portfolio to 2.33%. Notably, Icahn first took a position in JetBlue in the first quarter of 2024, and the ramp-up suggests he sees serious turnaround potential.
While JetBlue and Illumina were among the top buys this quarter, Icahn trimmed exposure elsewhere, most notably Southwest Gas Holdings Inc (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SWX#NYSE">SWX</a>), which saw a 1.96% drop in portfolio allocation.
With bets spanning DNA sequencing and discount air travel, Icahn&#8217;s latest moves show he's not afraid to invest where turbulence—literal or figurative—is part of the ride.

The Founder, CEO, and CIO of Ark Invest, Cathie Wood, has highlighted the rising applications of artificial intelligence and how it is poised to impact not only autonomous taxi networks and humanoid robots but also the health care space.
What Happened: According to ARK's proprietary Multiomics Flywheel, Wood highlighted in her recent X post that autonomous taxi networks and humanoid robots are likely to be the largest AI applications during the next five and ten years, respectively; however, &#8220;health care is likely to be the most profound.&#8221;

The post shared by Ark&#8217;s multiomics analyst, Nemo M Despot, underscored that &#8220;AI is powering a self-reinforcing loop that accelerates every aspect of multiomics—from generating biological data, to diagnosing diseases, to developing new drugs and cures.&#8221;
Multiomics is a biological analysis approach that integrates data from multiple &#8220;omic&#8221; fields, like genomics, transcriptomics, proteomics, and metabolomics, to gain an understanding of biological systems.
This integrated approach helps researchers uncover complex relationships, identify biomarkers, and ultimately understand the mechanisms behind disease and other biological processes.
He also highlights that companies like Twist Bioscience Corp. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TWST#NASDAQ">TWST</a>), Tempus AI Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TEM#NASDAQ">TEM</a>), 10X Genomics Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TXG#NASDAQ">TXG</a>), and Illumina Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/ILMN#NASDAQ">ILMN</a>) are developing increasingly powerful tools to sequence and analyze DNA faster and more cost-effectively.
Despot stated that AI-powered molecular diagnostics are transforming early disease detection and enabling precise stratification of individual patient biological profiles.
&#8220;AI leverages data from multiomic tools and diagnostics to design more effective drugs, delivering results with higher success rates more quickly and less expensively,&#8221; he said.
According to him, these next-generation therapies are:
<ul class="wp-block-list">
<li>Approximately 20 times more valuable than standard drugs.</li>
</ul>
<ul class="wp-block-list">
<li>Two to four times more effective than even today's best-in-class precision medicine.</li>
</ul>
<ul class="wp-block-list">
<li>The new cures can address even rare diseases economically.</li>
</ul>

Why It Matters: Trump, in a Truth Social post, said that he will <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/general/health-care/25/05/45339399/trump-says-prescription-drug-prices-set-to-drop-by-30-to-80-almost-immediately-thanks-to-most-favored-nation-plan-mark-cuban-urges-president-to-force-tran">sign an executive order</a> on Monday at 9:00 a.m. ET, which will lead the prescription drug and pharmaceutical prices to drop by 30% to 80%.
&#8220;They will rise throughout the World in order to equalize and, for the first time in many years, bring FAIRNESS TO AMERICA! I will be instituting a MOST FAVORED NATION'S POLICY whereby the United States will pay the same price as the Nation that pays the lowest price anywhere in the World,&#8221; he added.
Trump also believes that healthcare costs in the U.S. will be reduced after this move, and it would save &#8220;trillions of dollars.&#8221;
This action by Trump is anticipated to most significantly <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/general/health-care/25/05/45341590/trumps-drug-pricing-executive-order-could-rattle-pharma-stocksprice-cuts-up-to-80">affect Medicare Part B drugs</a>, primarily outpatient prescriptions and biological products, as their prices are directly controlled by the Centers for Medicare &amp; Medicaid Services (CMS).
