Overview

Whole exome sequencing (WES) is a genome analysis method that uses target sequence capture technology to capture and enrich the DNA of the whole genome coding gene exon region, and then perform high-throughput sequencing. Similar to whole genome resequencing in terms of specific applications, a large number of SNPs / InDel / LOH / CNV / SV can be found through sequencing. However, whole-exome sequencing (WES) is more economical and efficient. Whole exome sequencing (WES) is primarily used to identify and study variants within coding and UTR regions associated with disease and population evolution.

Technical advantages of whole exome sequencing (WES):

• It only detects DNA in the exon region, the target region is more specific, the coverage is deeper, the data accuracy is higher, and it is more economical, especially for the analysis of a large number of samples.
• High-depth sequencing to find rare variants with variant frequencies below 1%.

Applications of targeted region sequencing include, but are not limited to:

• Explore the pathogenic mechanisms of Mender diseases and complex diseases and find pathogenic and susceptibility loci that are significantly associated with the disease.
• Tumor genome research
• Pharmacogenomics research
• Population cohort study
