Abstract excerpt
Tetralogy of Fallot (TOF) is one of most serious cyanotic congenital heart disease (CHD) and the prevalence is estimated to be 1 in 3000 live births worldwide. Though multiple studies have found genetic variants as risk factors for TOF, they could only explain a small fraction of the pathogenesis. Here, we performed whole genome sequencing (WGS) for 6 individuals derived from 2 families to evaluate pathogenic...
