Whole exome sequencing in childhood-onset lupus frequently detects single gene etiologies
30 Jul 2019
Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: Systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) comprise a diverse range of clinical manifestations. To date, more than 30 single gene causes of lupus/lupus like syndromes in humans have been identified. In the clinical setting, identifying the underlying molecular diagnosis is challenging due to phenotypic and genetic heterogeneity. METHODS: We employed whole exome sequencing (WES) in patients presenting with...
