Rethinking the pathogenicity of intragenic<i>DMD</i>duplications detected by carrier screening: high prevalence of non-tandem duplications revealed by long-read sequencing
2025-04-14
Abstract excerpt
<h4>Purpose</h4> The pathogenicity of intragenic duplications depends on their structural configuration. Tandem duplications often disrupt reading frames and cause gene loss-of-function, whereas interspersed (non-tandem) duplications are largely benign. When the configuration cannot be determined, current guidelines presume a tandem structure, leading to some laboratories automatically classifying such variants as...
