Whole-genome sequencing as a first-tier diagnostic framework for rare genetic diseases.

Experimental biology and medicine (Maywood, N.J.)

Nisar H, Wajid B, Shahid S, Anwar F, Wajid I, Khatoon A, Sattar MU, Sadaf S.
PMID: 34521224
Exp Biol Med (Maywood). 2021 Dec;246(24):2610-2617. doi: 10.1177/15353702211040046. Epub 2021 Sep 15.

Rare diseases affect nearly 300 million people globally with most patients aged five or less. Traditional diagnostic approaches have provided much of the diagnosis; however, there are limitations. For instance, simply inadequate and untimely diagnosis adversely affects both the...

Copy-Number Variants Detection by Low-Pass Whole-Genome Sequencing.

Current protocols in human genetics

Dong Z, Xie W, Chen H, Xu J, Wang H, Li Y, Wang J, Chen F, Choy KW, Jiang H.
PMID: 28696555
Curr Protoc Hum Genet. 2017 Jul 11;94:8.17.1-8.17.16. doi: 10.1002/cphg.43.

Emerging studies have demonstrated that whole-genome sequencing (WGS) is an efficient tool for copy-number variants (CNV) detection, particularly in probe-poor regions, as compared to chromosomal microarray analysis (CMA). However, the cost of testing is beyond economical for routine usage...

Kronos: a workflow assembler for genome analytics and informatics.

GigaScience

Taghiyar MJ, Rosner J, Grewal D, Grande BM, Aniba R, Grewal J, Boutros PC, Morin RD, Bashashati A, Shah SP.
PMID: 28655203
Gigascience. 2017 Jul 01;6(7):1-10. doi: 10.1093/gigascience/gix042.

BACKGROUND: The field of next-generation sequencing informatics has matured to a point where algorithmic advances in sequence alignment and individual feature detection methods have stabilized. Practical and robust implementation of complex analytical workflows (where such tools are structured into...

Clustering Analysis Supports the Detection of Biological Processes Related to Autism Spectrum Disorder.

Genes

Emberti Gialloreti L, Enea R, Di Micco V, Di Giovanni D, Curatolo P.
PMID: 33316975
Genes (Basel). 2020 Dec 09;11(12). doi: 10.3390/genes11121476.

Genome sequencing has identified a large number of putative autism spectrum disorder (ASD) risk genes, revealing possible disrupted biological pathways; however, the genetic and environmental underpinnings of ASD remain mostly unanswered. The presented methodology aimed to identify genetically related...

From exomes to genomes: challenges and solutions in population-based genetic association studies.

European journal of human genetics : EJHG

Auer PL, Leal SM.

The nuanced negative: Meanings of a negative diagnostic result in clinical exome sequencing.

Sociology of health & illness

Skinner D, Raspberry KA, King M.
PMID: 27538589
Sociol Health Illn. 2016 Nov;38(8):1303-1317. doi: 10.1111/1467-9566.12460. Epub 2016 Aug 19.

Genomic sequencing technology is moving rapidly from the research setting into clinical medicine but significant technological and interpretive challenges remain. Exome sequencing (ES) in its recent clinical application provides a genetic diagnosis in about 25 per cent of cases...

Ensemble outlier detection and gene selection in triple-negative breast cancer data.

BMC bioinformatics

Lopes MB, Veríssimo A, Carrasquinha E, Casimiro S, Beerenwinkel N, Vinga S.
PMID: 29728051
BMC Bioinformatics. 2018 May 04;19(1):168. doi: 10.1186/s12859-018-2149-7.

BACKGROUND: Learning accurate models from 'omics data is bringing many challenges due to their inherent high-dimensionality, e.g. the number of gene expression variables, and comparatively lower sample sizes, which leads to ill-posed inverse problems. Furthermore, the presence of outliers,...

Total number of reads affects the accuracy of fetal fraction estimates in NIPT.

Molecular genetics & genomic medicine

Miceikaitė I, Brasch-Andersen C, Fagerberg C, Larsen MJ.
PMID: 33687149
Mol Genet Genomic Med. 2021 Apr;9(4):e1653. doi: 10.1002/mgg3.1653. Epub 2021 Mar 09.

BACKGROUND: Sufficient fetal fraction (FF) is crucial for quality control of NIPT (Non-Invasive Prenatal Test) results. Different factors influencing bioinformatic estimation of FF should be considered when implementing NIPT. To what extent the total number of sequencing reads influences...

A Simple Practical Guide to Genomic Diagnostics in a Pediatric Setting.

Genes

Taylor A, Alloub Z, Tayoun AA.
PMID: 34071827
Genes (Basel). 2021 May 27;12(6). doi: 10.3390/genes12060818.

With limited access to trained clinical geneticists and/or genetic counselors in the majority of healthcare systems globally, and the expanding use of genetic testing in all specialties of medicine, many healthcare providers do not receive the relevant support to...
