Whole Exome/Genome Sequencing Joint Analysis of a Family with Oligogenic Familial Hypercholesterolemia. [PDF]
Autosomal Dominant Hypercholesterolemia (ADH) is a genetic disorder caused by pathogenic variants in LDLR, APOB, PCSK9 and APOE genes. We sought to identify new candidate genes responsible for the ADH phenotype in patients without pathogenic variants in the known ADH-causing genes by focusing on a French family with affected and non-affected members ...

Whole exome/genome sequencing in cyclic vomiting syndrome reveals multiple candidate genes, suggesting a model of elevated intracellular cations and mitochondrial dysfunction. [PDF]
ObjectiveTo utilize whole exome or genome sequencing and the scientific literature for identifying candidate genes for cyclic vomiting syndrome (CVS), an idiopathic migraine variant with paroxysmal nausea and vomiting.MethodsA retrospective chart review of 80 unrelated participants, ascertained by a quaternary care CVS specialist, was conducted.

Secondary findings from whole-exome/genome sequencing evaluating stakeholder perspectives. A review of the literature [PDF]
With the development of next generation sequencing, beyond identifying the cause of manifestations that justified prescription of the test, other information with potential interest for patients and their families, defined as secondary findings (SF), can be provided once patients have given informed consent, in particular when therapeutic and ...

Challenges in Medical Applications of Whole Exome/Genome Sequencing Discoveries [PDF]
Despite the well-documented influence of genetics on susceptibility to cardiovascular diseases, delineation of the full spectrum of the risk alleles had to await the development of modern next-generation sequencing technologies. The techniques provide unbiased approaches for identification of the DNA sequence variants (DSVs) in the entire genome (whole

SEXCMD: Development and validation of sex marker sequences for whole-exome/genome and RNA sequencing
Over the last decade, a large number of nucleotide sequences have been generated by next-generation sequencing technologies and deposited to public databases. However, most of these datasets do not specify the sex of individuals sampled because researchers typically ignore or hide this information.

From Genomes to GENE-omes: Exome Sequencing Concept and Applications in Crop Improvement
Exome sequencing represents targeted capture and sequencing of 1–2% of ‘high-value genomic regions’ (subset of the genome) which are enriched for functional variants and harbors low level of repetitive regions.

Chromothripsis is associated with unfavourable outcomes in multiple myeloma (MM), but its detection usually requires whole genome sequencing. Here the authors develop an approach to detect chromothripsis in MM based on copy-number signatures that also ...

Plant Sequence Capture Optimised for Illumina Sequencing
Plant Sequence Capture is used for targeted resequencing of whole exomes (all exons of a genome) of complex genomes e.g. barley and its relatives (Mascher et al., 2013).
