Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: Massively parallel, high-throughput sequencing technology is helping to generate new insights into the genetic basis of human diseases. We used whole exome sequencing to identify the mutation underlying a syndrome affecting 2 siblings with aortic hypoplasia, calcific atherosclerosis, systolic hypertension, and premature cataract. METHODS AND RESULTS: Exonic regions were captured and sequenced using a...
