Abstract excerpt
Alport syndrome (AS) is a prevalent inherited kidney disorder mainly caused by mutations in COL4A3, COL4A4, and COL4A5 genes. To elucidate the genetic variants of AS, we implemented a sequential sequencing strategy within a Chinese cohort of 555 patients, comprising whole-exome sequencing (WES) for all participants, followed by whole-genome sequencing (WGS), RNA sequencing (RNA-seq), and nanopore long-read...
