Whole exome sequencing analysis pipeline for the discovery of mutations causative of human rare diseases
"... Abstract Recent advances in high-throughput sequencing technologies have made exome sequencing to be an outstanding tool for finding disease associated mutations at a relatively low cost. However, it is a non-trivial task to transform the vast amount of sequence data into meaningful variants to imp ..."

This paper provides an overview of the current and future use of next generation sequencing as it relates to whole exome sequencing in human disease by focusing on the technical capabilities, limitations and ethical
Open Access Comprehensive comparison of three commercial human whole-exome capture platforms
"... Background: Exome sequencing, which allows the global analysis of protein coding sequences in the human genome, has become an effective and affordable approach to detecting causative genetic mutations in diseases. Currently, there are several commercial human exome capture platforms; however, the re ..."

"... ABSTRACT The falling cost of DNA sequencing has made the technology affordable to many research groups, enabling researchers to link genomic variants to observed phenotypes in a range of species. This review focusses on whole exome sequencing and its applications in humans and other species. The exo ..."

nature of exons, many of these can be applied to other closely related species. The data set produced from exome sequencing is many times smaller than that of whole genome sequencing, making it more easily manageable and the analysis less complex.

Disease insights through cross-species phenotype comparisons
"... Abstract New sequencing technologies have ushered in a new era for diagnosis and discovery of new causative mutations for rare diseases. However, the sheer numbers of candidate variants that require interpretation in an exome or genomic analysis are still a challenging prospect. A powerful approach ..."

of the renal cell carcinomas, a heterogenous group of cancers arising from the nephron. Recently, The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) profiled this understudied disease using multiple data platforms, including whole exome sequencing, whole genome sequencing (WGS), and mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) sequencing
Functional Analysis of Variance for Association Studies
"... While progress has been made in identifying common genetic variants associated with human diseases, for most of common complex diseases, the identified genetic variants only account for a small proportion of heritability. Challenges remain in finding additional unknown genetic variants predisposing ..."
