Allelic Dropout Is a Common Phenomenon That Reduces the Diagnostic Yield of PCR-Based Sequencing of Targeted Gene Panels
1 Feb 2021
Abstract excerpt
Primary cardiomyopathies (CMPs) are monogenic but multi-allelic disorders with dozens of genes involved in pathogenesis. The implementation of next-generation sequencing (NGS) approaches has resulted in more time- and cost-efficient DNA diagnostics of cardiomyopathies. However, the diagnostic yield of genetic testing for each subtype of CMP fails to exceed 60%. The aim of this study was to demonstrate that...
