但法院是不大可能依据这些不切实际的道德准则来对此案件进行裁决的。
The legal debate revolves not around the two genes humanness, but their naturalnessforthe judges are being asked to rule whether Myriad s genes count as a product of nature.
法律争辩的焦点不在于基因的人类性,而是在于它们的自然性因为法官理应裁决麦利亚德公司的基因是否算是自然产物。
If they do, then under American law they cannot be patented.
如果是的话,那在美国法律规定下,这些基因就不能被注册专利。
At first glance, it may seem odd to argue that a gene is anything other than a product of thenatural world.
乍看之下,这可能看上去很奇怪,争论基因是否只是自然界产物。
But Myriad s patents do not cover the genes as they occur in living cells.
但麦利亚德公司的专利并不包括活细胞中存在的基因。
Rather, they cover isolated forms of the genes, which have been identified, snipped fromthe genome and chemically modified to make them analysable in a laboratory.
恰恰相反,专利涉及的是这些基因的分离基因,已被测定的分离基因是从基因组中剪切出来经化学方法修饰后可用于实验室实验分析的一类基因。
