Exome sequencing: the sweet spot before whole genomes
Open accessAbstract
The development of massively parallel sequencing technologies, coupled with new massively parallel DNA enrichment technologies (genomic capture), has allowed the sequencing of targeted regions of the human genome in rapidly increasing numbers of samples. Genomic capture can target specific areas in the genome, including genes of interest and linkage regions, but this limits the study to what is already known. Exome capture allows an unbiased investigation of the complete protein-coding regions in the genome. Researchers can use exome capture to focus on a critical part of the human genome, allowing larger numbers of samples than are currently practical with whole-genome sequencing. In this review, we briefly describe some of the methodologies currently used for genomic and exome capture and highlight recent applications of this technology.

“Instead of using plates with hundreds of wells, aqueous microdroplets can segregate thousands of individual reactions in the same tube, allowing for a much more highly parallel use of PCR (22) (commercially available from Raindance).”

“Targeted sequencing generally focuses on all protein-coding subsequences (the functional exome), which only requires ~5% as much sequencing compared to that required for the entire human genome (Pussegoda, 2010; Senapathy et al., 2010; Teer and Mullikin, 2010).”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
