High-resolution mapping of <i>DMD</i> duplications using long-read sequencing enables precise carrier screening for Duchenne muscular dystrophy
2025-08-14
Abstract excerpt
<h4>Purpose</h4> Exon-level duplications in the DMD gene present interpretive challenges due to limitations in resolving their genomic context. We aimed to assess the utility of long-read genome sequencing (lrGS) in characterizing DMD duplications and guiding clinical interpretation. <h4>Methods</h4> We applied low coverage lrGS (3–10× depth; ∼8.2 kb mean read length) to 18 individuals with DMD duplications iden...
