Evaluating the coverage and potential of imputing the exome microarray with next-generation imputation using the 1000 Genomes Project. [PDF]
Next-generation genotyping microarrays have been designed with insights from large-scale sequencing of exomes and whole genomes. The exome genotyping arrays promise to query the functional regions of the human genome at a fraction of the sequencing cost,

Whole-genome sequencing is more powerful than whole-exome sequencing for detecting exome variants [PDF]
AbstractWe compared whole-exome sequencing (WES) and whole-genome sequencing (WGS) in six unrelated individuals. In the regions targeted by WES capture (81.5% of the consensus coding genome), the mean numbers of single-nucleotide variants (SNVs) and small insertions/deletions (indels) detected per sample were 84,192 and 13,325, respectively, for WES ...

Retrospective evaluation of whole exome and genome mutation calls in 746 cancer samples
With the generation of large pan-cancer whole-exome and whole-genome sequencing projects, a question remains about how comparable these datasets are. Here, using The Cancer Genome Atlas samples analysed as part of the Pan-Cancer Analysis of Whole Genomes

Development and Validation of Clinical Whole-Exome and Whole-Genome Sequencing for Detection of Germline Variants in Inherited Disease [PDF]
Context.-With the decrease in the cost of sequencing, the clinical testing paradigm has shifted from single gene to gene panel and now whole-exome and whole-genome sequencing.

Development and performance of a targeted whole exome sequencing enrichment kit for the dog (Canis Familiaris Build 3.1) [PDF]
Whole exome sequencing is a technique that aims to selectively sequence all exons of protein-coding genes. A canine whole exome sequencing enrichment kit was designed based on the latest canine reference genome (build 3.1.72).

An heuristic filtering tool to identify phenotype-associated genetic variants applied to human intellectual disability and canine coat colors [PDF]
Background: Identification of one or several disease causing variant(s) from the large collection of variants present in an individual is often achieved by the sequential use of heuristic filters.

Whole‐exome sequencing for variant discovery in blepharospasm [PDF]
AbstractBackgroundBlepharospasm (BSP) is a type of focal dystonia characterized by involuntary orbicularis oculi spasms that are usually bilateral, synchronous, and symmetrical. Despite strong evidence for genetic contributions to BSP, progress in the field has been constrained by small cohorts, incomplete penetrance, and late age of onset.

Impact of Concurrency on the Performance of a Whole Exome Sequencing Pipeline [PDF]
Abstract Background: Current high-throughput technologies - i.e. Whole Genome Sequencing (WGS), RNA-Seq, ChIP-Seq, etc. - generate huge amounts of data and their usage gets more widespread with each passing year. Complex analysis pipelines involving several computationally-intensive steps have to be applied on an increasing number of samples ...

Diagnostic utility of exome sequencing for inherited peripheral neuropathies
Introduction. Hereditary motor and sensory neuropathies, a highly genetic heterogeneous group of disorders, have a phenotype caused by peripheral nerve damage.Purpose of the study – to assess the extent of genetic heterogeneity of hereditary motor and ...
