Whole exome sequencing provides a diagnosis of spinal muscular atrophy pedigree with SMN1 “2+0” genotype
2022-10-11
Abstract excerpt
<h4>Background: </h4> Spinal muscular atrophy (SMA) is one of the common autosomal recessive neuromuscular disease caused by mutations of the SMN1 gene. As a special SMA carrier, the “2 + 0” genotype of SMN1 poses a great challenge for carrier screening and family genetic counseling. Methods In this study, for the first time, we identified “2 + 0” genotype carriers via trio-based whole exome sequencing (WES) and...
