Biallelic CC2D2A variants, SNV and LINE-1 insertion simultaneously identified in siblings using long-read whole-genome sequencing and haplotype phasing.

Joubert syndrome (JBTS) is characterized by a magnetic resonance imaging appearance called 'molar tooth sign', neonatal breathing dysregulation and hypotonia, and developmental delay. Whole-exome analysis based on short-read sequencing has often contributed to the identification of causative single-nucleotide variants in patients clinically diagnosed with JBTS. However, ~10% of them are still undiagnosed even though a single possible pathogenic variant has been identified.
