Abstract excerpt
gene. Traditional diagnostics are based on Southern blotting, a time- and effort-intensive method that can be affected by single nucleotide variants (SNV) and copy number variants (CNV), as well as by the similarity of the D4Z4 repeats located on chromosome 10. We aimed to evaluate optical genome mapping (OGM) as an alternative molecular diagnostic method for the detection of FSHD. We first performed optical...
