Detection of distant familial relatedness in biobanks for identification of undiagnosed carriers of a Mendelian disease variant: application to Long QT syndrome
2023-04-25
Abstract excerpt
<h4>Importance</h4> The diagnosis and study of rare genetic disease is often limited to referral populations, leading to underdiagnosis and a biased assessment of penetrance and phenotype. <h4>Objective</h4> To develop a generalizable method of genotype inference based on distant relatedness and to deploy this to identify undiagnosed Type 5 Long QT Syndrome (LQT5) rare variant carriers in a non-referral population...
