Targeted capture and massively parallel sequencing of 12 human exomesSarah B Ng
Department of Genome Sciences, University of Washington, Seattle, Washington 98195, USA
Nature 461:272-6. 2009..This strategy may be extendable to diseases with more complex genetics through larger sample sizes and appropriate weighting of non-synonymous variants by predicted functional impact...
Exome sequencing identifies the cause of a mendelian disorderSarah B Ng
Department of Genome Sciences, University of Washington, Seattle, Washington, USA
Nat Genet 42:30-5. 2010..Exome sequencing of a small number of unrelated affected individuals is a powerful, efficient strategy for identifying the genes underlying rare mendelian disorders and will likely transform the genetic analysis of monogenic traits...

Spectrum of MLL2 (ALR) mutations in 110 cases of Kabuki syndromeMark C Hannibal
Department of Pediatrics, University of Washington, Seattle, 98195, USA
Am J Med Genet A 155:1511-6. 2011..These results are important for understanding the phenotypic consequences of MLL2 mutations for individuals and their families as well as for providing a basis for the identification of additional genes for Kabuki syndrome...

Exome sequencing in sporadic autism spectrum disorders identifies severe de novo mutationsBrian J O'Roak
Department of Genome Sciences, University of Washington School of Medicine, Seattle, Washington, USA
Nat Genet 43:585-9. 2011..Our results show that trio-based exome sequencing is a powerful approach for identifying new candidate genes for ASDs and suggest that de novo mutations may contribute substantially to the genetic etiology of ASDs...
Methods for genomic partitioningEmily H Turner
Department of Genome Sciences, University of Washington, Seattle, Washington 98195 5065, USA
Annu Rev Genomics Hum Genet 10:263-84. 2009..The successful development of genomic partitioning strategies will be key to taking full advantage of massively parallel sequencing, at least until resequencing of complete mammalian genomes becomes widely affordable...
Exome sequencing identifies a spectrum of mutation frequencies in advanced and lethal prostate cancersAkash Kumar
Department of Genome Sciences, University of Washington, Seattle, WA 98105, USA
Proc Natl Acad Sci U S A 108:17087-92. 2011..Our results also suggest that increasingly deep catalogs of human germline variation may challenge the necessity of sequencing matched tumor-normal pairs...

Haplotype-resolved genome sequencing of a Gujarati Indian individualJacob O Kitzman
Department of Genome Sciences, University of Washington School of Medicine, Seattle, Washington, USA
Nat Biotechnol 29:59-63. 2011..This method also facilitates the analysis of structural variation, for example, to anchor novel insertions to specific locations and haplotypes...
Next generation sequence analysis for mitochondrial disordersValeria Vasta
Seattle Children s Research Institute, 1900 9th Ave, Seattle, WA 98101, USA
Genome Med 1:100. 2009..The large numbers of potential culprit genes, together with the little guidance offered by most clinical phenotypes as to which gene may be causative, are a great challenge for the molecular diagnosis of these disorders...
