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

Whole-exome sequencing of a pedigree segregating asthma [PDF]
Background Despite the success of genome-wide association studies for asthma, few, if any, definitively causal variants have been identified and there is still a substantial portion of the heritability of the disease yet to be discovered.

Whole-exome sequencing in pediatric patients with glomerulonephritis
IntroductionHigh-throughput sequencing methods revealed disease-causing and susceptibility genes underlying glomerulonephritis (GN). Genetic disorders mimicking GN may be diagnosed in this way. The aim of this study was to perform whole-exome sequencing (

Prenatal whole exome sequencing (WES) has the potential to increase the ability to provide more diagnostic capabilities in fetuses with sonographic abnormalities, which would then improve the ability to counsel families. It is also often the first step in improving the path toward informed diagnosis and treatment, which is especially important in the ...

A decade with whole exome sequencing in haematology [PDF]
SummaryThe first decade of capture‐based targeted whole exome sequencing (WES) has now passed, while the sequencing modality continues to find more widespread usage in clinical research laboratories and still offers an unprecedented diagnostic assay in terms of throughput, informational content and running costs.

Rapid identification of mutations in GJC2 in primary lymphoedema using whole exome sequencing combined with linkage analysis with delineation of the phenotype. [PDF]
Background: Primary lymphoedema describes a chronic, frequently progressive, failure of lymphatic drainage. This disorder is frequently genetic in origin, and a multigenerational family in which eight individuals developed postnatal lymphoedema of all ...
