Abstract excerpt
The molecular genetic cause of over 3,000 monogenic disorders is currently unknown. This review discusses how novel genomic techniques like Next-Generation DNA Sequencing (NGS) and genotyping arrays open new avenues in the elucidation of genetic defects causing monogenic disorders. They will not only speed up disease gene identification but will enable us to systematically tackle previously intractable monogenic...
