Potential impact of long-read sequencing on complement-mediated diseases
PRODUCTS USED
ABSTRACT
The complement genes harbour genetic variants that affect numerous diseases; however, these genes are notoriously repeat-heavy, and these repeat regions are largely unexplored for disease-relevant genetic variation. Elucidating these 'dark' regions is now possible using long-read sequencing (LRS), enabling identification of novel disease-relevant genetic variants.
