Abstract excerpt
Whole-exome sequencing (WES) can detect not only single-nucleotide variants in causal genes, but also pathogenic copy-number variations using several methods. However, there may be overlooked pathogenic variations in the out of target genome regions of WES analysis (e.g., promoters), leaving many patients undiagnosed. Whole-genome sequencing (WGS) can potentially analyze such regions. We applied long-read...
