Wessim: a whole-exome sequencing simulator based on in silico exome capture [PDF]
Abstract Summary: We propose a targeted re-sequencing simulator Wessim that generates synthetic exome sequencing reads from a given sample genome. Wessim emulates conventional exome capture technologies, including Agilent’s SureSelect and NimbleGen’s SeqCap, to generate DNA fragments from genomic target regions. The target regions can be

Actionable Exomic Secondary Findings in 280 Lebanese Participants
The expanded use of NGS tests in genetic diagnosis enables the massive generation of data related to each individual, among which some findings are of medical value. Over the last three and a half years, 280 unrelated Lebanese patients, presenting a wide

Assessing the Power of Exome Chips
Genotyping chips for rare and low-frequent variants have recently gained popularity with the introduction of exome chips, but the utility of these chips remains unclear. These chips were designed using exome sequencing data from mainly American-European individuals, enriched for a narrow set of common diseases.

Twist exome capture allows for lower average sequence coverage in clinical exome sequencing [PDF]
Abstract Background Exome and genome sequencing are the predominant techniques in the diagnosis and research of genetic disorders. Sufficient, uniform and reproducible/consistent sequence coverage is a main determinant for the sensitivity to detect single-nucleotide (SNVs) and copy number variants (CNVs).
