In sum, the claims before us merely inform the relevant audience of certain laws of nature: specifically, the relationship between the amount of rDNA and the number of cells from which rDNA has been obtained. See Genetic Techs. Ltd. v. Merial L.L.C., 818 F.3d 1369, 1379—80 (Fed. Cir. 2016), cert, denied, (U.S. Oct. 3, 2016) (finding claims unpatentable under § 101 where, “the novelty of looking to non-coding DNA to detect a coding region allele of interest resides in the novelty of the newly discovered natural law of linkage disequilibrium between coding and non-coding regions and adds little more than a restatement of the natural law itself’).
