Exome sequencing identifies somatic mutations of DNA methyltransferase gene DNMT3A in acute monocytic leukemia. |
Exome data generated by TCGA comprised approximately 44 Mb of exonic sequence data from roughly 30 000 genes. |
In a handful of isolated cases, exome sequencing had been successfully used by doctors desperate to identify the causes of mysterious, life-threatening conditions. |
Dr. Lemaire will use cutting-edge genomic technology known has whole exome capture to make a snapshot of nearly all the human genes at once to identify the genes involved in Dent's disease. |
Whole exome sequencing is widely used for identifying and determining genetic variants responsible for various diseases such as Miller Syndrome and Alzheimer's disease. |
