Whole Exome Sequencing in Atrial Fibrillation.
Atrial fibrillation (AF) is a morbid and heritable arrhythmia. Over 35 genes have been reported to underlie AF, most of which were described in small candidate gene association studies. Replication remains lacking for most, and therefore the contribution

Exome sequencing: a transformative technology [PDF]
Much basic research into disease mechanisms has made use of genetic findings to model and understand aetiology. Broad success has been achieved in finding disease-linked mutations with traditional positional cloning approaches; however, because of the requirements of this method, these successes have been limited by the availability of large, well ...

Searching for BRCA3 by exome sequencing [PDF]
The current paradigm suggests that some non-BRCA1/2 multiple case breast cancer families are caused by rare mutations in high-risk genes. We are using exome sequencing to identify putative ‘BRCA3’ genes in a small number of kConFab families. We selected five non-BRCA1/2 families containing 5-9 breast cancer cases (of which 0-4 per family were affected ...

Exome Sequencing in Children [PDF]
In developed countries, global developmental disorders are encounter- ed in approximately 1% of all children. The causes are manifold, and no exogenous cause can be identified in about half of the affected children. The parallel investi- gation of the coding sequences of all genes of the affected individual (whole exome sequencing, WES) has developed ...

Exome Sequencing Deciphers Rare Diseases [PDF]
Two years ago, NIH's Undiagnosed Diseases Program began delivering genomics to the clinic on an unprecedented scale. Now, with 128 exomes sequenced and 39 rare diseases diagnosed, the program's success is paving the way for widespread personal genomics while pioneering new techniques for reigning in the "tsunami" of genomics data.

The GENCODE exome: sequencing the complete human exome [PDF]
Sequencing the coding regions, the exome, of the human genome is one of the major current strategies to identify low frequency and rare variants associated with human disease traits. So far, the most widely used commercial exome capture reagents have mainly targeted the consensus coding sequence (CCDS) database.

The Rise and Rise of Exome Sequencing [PDF]
Beginning in 2009, the advent of exome sequencing has contributed significantly towards new discoveries of heritable germline mutations and de novo mutations for rare Mendelian disorders with hitherto unknown genetic aetiologies. Exome sequencing is an efficient tool to identify disease mutations without the need of a multi-generational pedigree ...

Performance of Exome Sequencing for Pharmacogenomics [PDF]
We present the potential false-negative rate of exome sequencing for the detection of pharmacogenomic variants.Depth of coverage of 1928 pharmacogenomically relevant variant positions was ascertained from 62 exome-sequenced samples.Approximately 14% of the 1928 variant locations examined had inadequate depth of coverage (

Clinical exome sequencing—Mistakes and caveats [PDF]
Massive parallel sequencing technology has become the predominant technique for genetic diagnostics and research. Many genetic laboratories have wrestled with the challenges of setting up genetic testing workflows based on a completely new technology.
