Whole‐exome sequencing for variant discovery in blepharospasm [PDF]

open access: yesMolecular Genetics & Genomic Medicine, 2018
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.

Whole exome sequencing in family trios reveals de novo mutations in PURA as a cause of severe neurodevelopmental delay and learning disability [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Background: De novo mutations are emerging as an important cause of neurocognitive impairment, and whole exome sequencing of case-parent trios is a powerful way of detecting them. Here, we report the findings in four such trios.

Comparison of Variant Calls from Whole Genome and Whole Exome Sequencing Data Using Matched Samples

open access: yes, 2018
Whole exome sequencing (WES) has been extensively used in genomic research. As sequencing costs decline it is being replaced by whole genome sequencing (WGS) in large-scale genomic studies, but more comparative information on WES and WGS datasets would ...

Whole Exome Sequencing of Intracranial Aneurysm [PDF]

open access: yesStroke, 2013
The risk of intracranial aneurysm (IA) is increased among individuals with first-degree relatives with history of IA.1 A variety of approaches have been used to identify genes that contribute to the risk of IA.2–4 Genomewide association studies have identified and replicated associations on chromosome 4q31.23 ( EDNRA ), 8q12.1 ( SOX17 ), 9p21.3 ...

Semantic prioritization of novel causative genomic variants.

open access: yesPLoS Computational Biology, 2017
Discriminating the causative disease variant(s) for individuals with inherited or de novo mutations presents one of the main challenges faced by the clinical genetics community today.

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

open access: yesPLoS 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.

NCI-60 whole exome sequencing and pharmacological CellMiner analyses.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2014
Exome sequencing provides unprecedented insights into cancer biology and pharmacological response. Here we assess these two parameters for the NCI-60, which is among the richest genomic and pharmacological publicly available cancer cell line databases ...

Case Report: Identification of a de novo Microdeletion 1q44 in a Patient With Seizures and Developmental Delay

open access: yesFrontiers in Genetics, 2021
Objective: 1q44 microdeletion syndrome is difficult to diagnose due to the wide phenotypic spectrum and strong genetic heterogeneity. We explore the correlation between the chromosome microdeletions and phenotype in a child with 1q44 microdeletion ...

Integrated Model of De Novo and Inherited Genetic Variants Yields Greater Power to Identify Risk Genes [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
De novo mutations affect risk for many diseases and disorders, especially those with early-onset. An example is autism spectrum disorders (ASD). Four recent whole-exome sequencing (WES) studies of ASD families revealed a handful of novel risk genes ...
