Summary

Using long-read sequencing (LRS) technology to achieve molecular diagnosis in patients with rare genetic diseases who have already been tested by state-of-the-art genetic analysis with ambiguous or negative results. This will lead to efficient and reliable identification and clinical interpretation of cryptic and complex structural genomic variants, which represent the central challenge for the coming decades in human genetics.

Eligibility

Age: 28 Days+Healthy volunteers accepted
Inclusion Criteria:

* patients/relatives of patients with Copy Number Variations (CNVs), previously detected by aCGH, with uncertain clinical significance;
* patients/relatives of patients with inconclusive WES and aCGH data (no pathogenic/likely pathogenic variant);
* patients/relatives of patients with a known single hit (a pathogenic or likely pathogenic variant) in an AR gene detected with WES or aCGH;
* patients/relatives of patients with a finding of complex structural variants whose molecular disease mechanism is to be elucidated.

Exclusion Criteria:

* none
