Abstract excerpt
RATIONALE & OBJECTIVE: Molecular diagnosis of autosomal dominant tubulointerstitial kidney disease (ADTKD) due to variants in the MUC1 gene has long been challenging because variants lie in a large variable number of tandem repeat (VNTR) region, making identification impossible using standard short-read techniques. Previously, we addressed this diagnostic limitation by developing a computational pipeline named...
