Diagnosing missed cases of spinal muscular atrophy in genome, exome, and panel sequencing data sets
9 Dec 2024
Abstract excerpt
PURPOSE: We set out to develop a publicly available tool that could accurately diagnose spinal muscular atrophy (SMA) in exome, genome, or panel sequencing data sets aligned to a GRCh37, GRCh38, or T2T reference genome. METHODS: The SMA Finder algorithm detects the most common genetic causes of SMA by evaluating reads that overlap the c.840 position of the SMN1 and SMN2 paralogs. It uses these reads to determine...
