Scalable whole-exome sequencing of cell-free DNA reveals high concordance with metastatic tumors

open access: yesNature Communications, 2017
Identifying the mutational landscape of tumours from cell-free DNA in the blood could help diagnostics in cancer. Here, the authors present ichorCNA, software that quantifies tumour content in cell free DNA, and they demonstrate that cell-free DNA whole ...

Exome sequencing and analysis of 454,787 UK Biobank participants

open access: yesNature, 2021
A major goal in human genetics is to use natural variation to understand the phenotypic consequences of altering each protein-coding gene in the genome. Here we used exome sequencing1 to explore protein-altering variants and their consequences in 454,787

Diagnostic yield of exome sequencing for prenatal diagnosis of fetal structural anomalies: A systematic review and meta‐analysis

open access: yesPrenatal Diagnosis, 2022
We conducted a systematic review and meta‐analysis to determine the diagnostic yield of exome sequencing (ES) for prenatal diagnosis of fetal structural anomalies, where karyotype/chromosomal microarray (CMA) is normal.

Accurate rare variant phasing of whole-genome and whole-exome sequencing data in the UK Biobank

open access: yesbioRxiv, 2022
Phasing involves distinguishing the two parentally inherited copies of each chromosome into haplotypes. Here, we introduce SHAPEIT5, a new phasing method that quickly and accurately processes large sequencing datasets and applied it to UK Biobank (UKB ...

Exome sequencing identifies rare damaging variants in ATP8B4 and ABCA1 as risk factors for Alzheimer’s disease

open access: yesNature Genetics, 2022
Alzheimer’s disease (AD), the leading cause of dementia, has an estimated heritability of approximately 70%1. The genetic component of AD has been mainly assessed using genome-wide association studies, which do not capture the risk contributed by rare ...

Exome/Genome Sequencing in Undiagnosed Syndromes

open access: yesAnnual Review of Medicine, 2023
Exome sequencing (ES) and genome sequencing (GS) have radically transformed the diagnostic approach to undiagnosed rare/ultrarare Mendelian diseases. Next-generation sequencing (NGS), the technology integral for ES, GS, and most large (100+) gene panels,

Exome sequencing and genetic testing for MODY. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2012
Genetic testing for monogenic diabetes is important for patient care. Given the extensive genetic and clinical heterogeneity of diabetes, exome sequencing might provide additional diagnostic potential when standard Sanger sequencing-based diagnostics is ...

Twist exome capture allows for lower average sequence coverage in clinical exome sequencing

open access: yesHuman Genomics, 2023
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 ...

Exome sequencing as first‐tier test for fetuses with severe central nervous system structural anomalies

open access: yesUltrasound in Obstetrics and Gynecology, 2022
Prenatally detected central nervous system (CNS) anomalies present a diagnostic challenge. In this study, we compared the diagnostic yield of exome sequencing (ES) and chromosomal microarray analysis (CMA) in fetuses with a major CNS anomaly.

Parallel Tests of Whole Exome Sequencing and Copy Number Variant Sequencing Increase the Diagnosis Yields of Rare Pediatric Disorders

open access: yesFrontiers in Genetics, 2020
Background: Both whole exome sequencing and copy number variants sequencing were applied to identify the genetic cause of rare pediatric disorders.
