Genetic evaluation of five patients with ROHHAD-NET using whole genome sequencing and optical genome mapping [PDF]
Background Rapid-onset obesity, hypothalamic dysfunction, hypoventilation, autonomic dysregulation (ROHHAD) and neuroendocrine tumor (NET) is a very rare condition with an unknown etiology. While various potential causes have been hypothesized, including

Optical genome mapping unveils hidden structural variants in neurodevelopmental disorders
While short-read sequencing currently dominates genetic research and diagnostics, it frequently falls short of capturing certain structural variants (SVs), which are often implicated in the etiology of neurodevelopmental disorders (NDDs).

Retrospective study on the utility of optical genome mapping as a follow-up method in genetic diagnostics. [PDF]
Background Current standard-of-care (SOC) methods for genetic testing are capable of resolving deletions and sequence variants, but they mostly fail to provide information on the breakpoints of duplications and balanced structural variants (SV). However,

Optical genome mapping enables constitutional chromosomal aberration detection [PDF]
Chromosomal aberrations including structural variations (SVs) are a major cause of human genetic diseases. Their detection in clinical routine still relies on standard cytogenetics. Drawbacks of these tests are a very low resolution (karyotyping) and the inability to detect balanced SVs or indicate the genomic localization and orientation of duplicated

Optical genome mapping for detection of chromosomal aberrations in prenatal diagnosis
Introduction Chromosomal aberrations are the most important etiological factors for birth defects. Optical genome mapping is a novel cytogenetic tool for detecting a broad range of chromosomal aberrations in a single assay, but relevant clinical ...

OMGS: Optical Map-based Genome Scaffolding [PDF]
AbstractDue to the current limitations of sequencing technologies,de novogenome assembly is typically carried out in two stages, namely contig (sequence) assembly and scaffolding. While scaffolding is computationally easier than sequence assembly, the scaffolding problem can be challenging due to the high repetitive content of eukaryotic genomes ...

Optical Whole-Genome Restriction Mapping as a Tool for Rapidly Distinguishing and Identifying Bacterial Contaminants in Clinical Samples [PDF]
Introduction: Optical restriction genome mapping is a technology in which a genome is linearized on a surface and digested with specific restriction enzymes, giving an arrangement of the genome with gaps whose order and size are unique for a given ...

Optical mapping in plant comparative genomics [PDF]
Optical mapping has been widely used to improve de novo plant genome assemblies, including rice, maize, Medicago, Amborella, tomato and wheat, with more genomes in the pipeline. Optical mapping provides long-range information of the genome and can more easily identify large structural variations.

OM2Seq: Learning retrieval embeddings for optical genome mapping
AbstractMotivationGenomics-based diagnostic methods that are quick, precise, and economical are essential for the advancement of precision medicine, with applications spanning the diagnosis of infectious diseases, cancer, and rare diseases. One technology that holds potential in this field is optical genome mapping (OGM), which is capable of detecting ...

Multiplex structural variant detection by whole-genome mapping and nanopore sequencing
Identification of structural variants (SVs) breakpoints is important in studying mutations, mutagenic causes, and functional impacts. Next-generation sequencing and whole-genome optical mapping are extensively used in SV discovery and characterization ...
