Targeted next generation sequencing for molecular diagnosis of Usher syndrome
BACKGROUND Usher syndrome is an autosomal recessive disease that associates sensorineural hearing loss, retinitis pigmentosa and, in some cases, vestibular dysfunction. It is clinically and genetically heterogeneous. To date, 10 genes have been associated with the disease, making its molecular diagnosis based on Sanger sequencing, expensive and time-consuming. Consequently, the aim of the prese...
متن کاملA targeted next-generation sequencing assay for the molecular diagnosis of genetic disorders with orodental involvement
BACKGROUND Orodental diseases include several clinically and genetically heterogeneous disorders that can present in isolation or as part of a genetic syndrome. Due to the vast number of genes implicated in these disorders, establishing a molecular diagnosis can be challenging. We aimed to develop a targeted next-generation sequencing (NGS) assay to diagnose mutations and potentially identify n...
متن کاملStrategies and Clinical Applications of Next Generation Sequencing
Abstract DNA sequencing is one of the great valuable techniques in molecular biology, which can be used to detect the sequence of nucleotides in a DNA fragment. The high-throughput sequencing known as Next Generation Sequencing (NGS) revolutionized genomic research and molecular biology; therefore, the whole human genome can be sequenced with a low cost in several days. NGS technology is simi...
متن کاملApplication of Next Generation Sequencing Upon the Molecular Genetic Diagnosis of Deafness
The main objective of this review is to describe the new sequencing technologies called next generation sequencing (NGS) and its utility as a molecular genetic diagnosis tool in a medical field. Sanger method has dominated the genome sequencing industry for the past 30 years since its invention in 1975. It produced first human genome and still remains the gold standard for genome sequencing. Ho...
متن کاملGenetic diagnosis of familial hypercholesterolaemia by targeted next-generation sequencing
OBJECTIVES The aim of this study was to combine clinical criteria and next-generation sequencing (pyrosequencing) to establish a diagnosis of familial hypercholesterolaemia (FH). DESIGN, SETTING AND SUBJECTS A total of 77 subjects with a Dutch Lipid Clinic Network score of ≥ 3 (possible, probable or definite FH clinical diagnosis) were recruited from the Lipid Clinic at Sahlgrenska Hospital, ...
