Abstract excerpt
Acquired TERT promoter (TERTp) variants are found in the blood of patients with telomere biology disorders and carry diagnostic and prognostic significance. Detection of these variants is challenging because of low variant allele frequencies (VAFs) and high GC content. The sensitivity of long-read amplicon sequencing with deepSNV analysis, referred to as LR-deep AmpSeq, for TERTp variant detection was tested....
