Article Synopsis
  • Current clinical testing for imprinting disorders is complicated and usually involves several tests to get a clear diagnosis.
  • We explored the use of whole-genome long-read sequencing (LRS) as a single test to analyze different genetic variations and methylation patterns in individuals with Prader-Willi or Angelman syndrome.
  • Our results showed that LRS can accurately diagnose these conditions efficiently and could simplify testing while lowering costs and speeding up results in clinical settings.

Genetic sequencing has become a critical part of the diagnosis of certain forms of pancreatic beta cell dysfunction. Despite great advances in the speed and cost of DNA sequencing, determining the pathogenicity of variants remains a challenge, and requires sharing of sequence and phenotypic data between laboratories. We reviewed all diabetes and hyperinsulinism-associated molecular testing done at the Seattle Children's Molecular Genetics Laboratory from 2009 to 2013.
