Abstract excerpt
Mosaicisms caused by postzygotic mutational events are of increasing interest because of their potential association with various human diseases. Postzygotic somatic mutations have not been well characterized however in terms of their developmental lineage in humans. We conducted whole-genome sequencing (WGS) and targeted deep sequencing in 15 organs across three developmental lineages from a single male fetus...
