Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: Cystic fibrosis (CF) is one of the most common life-threatening genetic disorders. Around 2000 variants in the CFTR gene have been identified, with some proportion known to be pathogenic and 300 disease-causing mutations have been characterized in detail by CFTR2 database, which complicates its analysis with conventional methods. METHODS: We conducted next-generation sequencing (NGS) in a cohort of 89...
