http://www.cd-genomics.com/Exome-and-Target-Region-Sequencing.html Exome sequencing (also known as targeted exome capture) is an efficient strategy to selectively sequence the coding regions of the genome, which utilizes target enrichment strategy, as a cheaper but still effective alternative to whole genome sequencing. Target region sequencing utilizes similar strategy which involves isolation of genomic regions of interest in a sample library, enabling cost effective and systematic detection of germline and somatic variants.
Exome and Target Region Sequencing Features and Benefits: Targeted - focus on the regions of exome of interest. Cost effective - much lower cost for narrowed region sequencing. Precise - extremely high depth on the focused candidate sites or genes.
Exome and Target Region Sequencing Workflow:
Exome and Target Region Sequencing Applications: Resequencing of exomic regions Polygenic disease studies Genetic marker development Large genomic loci resequencing Resequencing of candidate gene sets Metabolic pathway studies
