Prenatal whole exome sequencing identified two rare compound heterozygous variants in EVC2 causing Ellis‐van Creveld syndrome

Molecular Genetics & Genomic Medicine, 2023
Background Pathogenic mutations in EVC or EVC2 gene can lead to Ellis‐van Creveld (EvC) syndrome, which is a rare autosomal recessive skeletal dysplasia disorder.

Case report: targeted whole exome sequencing enables the first prenatal diagnosis of the lethal skeletal dysplasia Osteocraniostenosis. [PDF]

, 2020
BACKGROUND: Osteocraniostenosis (OCS) is a rare genetic disorder characterised by premature closure of cranial sutures, gracile bones and perinatal lethality. Previously, diagnosis has only been possible postnatally on clinical and radiological features.

Whole-exome sequencing study of hypospadias

iScience, 2023
Summary: Hypospadias results from the impaired urethral development, which is influenced by androgens, but its genetic etiology is still unknown. Through whole exome sequencing analysis, we identified NR5A1, SRD5A2, and AR as mutational hotspots in the ...

Using linkage analysis of large pedigrees to guide association analyses [PDF]

, 2011
To date, genome-wide association studies have yielded discoveries of common variants that partly explain familial aggregation of diseases and traits. Researchers are now turning their attention to less common variants because the price of sequencing has ...

Detecting identity by descent and homozygosity mapping in whole-exome sequencing data. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2012
The detection of genetic segments of Identical by Descent (IBD) in Genome-Wide Association Studies has proven successful in pinpointing genetic relatedness between reportedly unrelated individuals and leveraging such regions to shortlist candidate genes.
