Abstract excerpt
Whole-exome sequencing (WES) has become the strategy of choice to identify causal variants in monogenic disorders. However, the list of candidate variants can be quite large, including false positives generated by sequencing errors. To reduce this list of candidate variants to the most relevant ones, a cost-effective strategy would be to focus on regions of linkage identified through linkage analysis conducted...
