Journal ArticleDOI

Improved diagnostic yield compared with targeted gene sequencing panels suggests a role for whole-genome sequencing as a first-tier genetic test.

TL;DR: WGS as a primary clinical test provided a higher diagnostic yield than conventional genetic testing in a clinically heterogeneous cohort and confirmed recent disease associations with the genes PIGG, RNU4ATAC, TRIO, and UNC13A.
Journal ArticleDOI

Whole-genome sequencing expands diagnostic utility and improves clinical management in paediatric medicine

TL;DR: Clinical implementation of WGS as a primary test will provide a higher diagnostic yield than conventional genetic testing and potentially reduce the time required to reach a genetic diagnosis.
Journal ArticleDOI

The natural history of glycogen storage disease types VI and IX: Long-term outcome from the largest metabolic center in Canada.

TL;DR: Close monitoring is recommended in all patients with GSD-VI and -IX for the long-term liver and cardiac complications and 16 novel pathogenic mutations in the PHKA2, PHKB, PHKG2 and PYGL genes are reported.
Journal ArticleDOI

Exome sequencing identifies NFS1 deficiency in a novel Fe-S cluster disease, infantile mitochondrial complex II/III deficiency.

TL;DR: The first disease in man likely caused by deficiency in NFS1 is described, a cysteine desulfurase that is implicated in respiratory chain function and iron maintenance by initiating Fe‐S cluster biosynthesis is described and the results further demonstrate the importance of sufficient N FS1 expression in human physiology.
