Detection of distant relatedness in biobanks for identification of undiagnosed carriers of a Mendelian disease variant: application to Long QT Syndrome
2023-09-15
Abstract excerpt
<title>Abstract</title> <p>Rare genetic diseases are typically studied in referral populations, resulting in underdiagnosis and biased assessment of penetrance and phenotype. To address this, we developed a generalizable method of genotype inference based on distant relatedness and deployed this to identify undiagnosed Type 5 Long QT Syndrome (LQT5) rare variant carriers in a non-referral population. We identifie...
