Zusammenfassung
We have performed a whole genome sequencing (WGS) of DNA samples from a family with two affected siblings suffering from CN. Both children harbored ELANE gene mutations and developed AML. Father of the children demonstrates somatic mosaicism for the ELANE mutation and has a mild neutropenia. For WGS we used Complete Genomics technology (Complete Genomics, USA). More than 90% of genomes were sequenced at high quality with minimum coverage of at least 20-fold. As an example, 3437845 single nucleotide variants (SNVs) were identified in DNA isolated from leukemia blasts of sequenced CN patient. The set of filters we…
