Homozygous duplication identified by whole genome sequencing causes LRBA deficiency

Abstract In more than one-third of primary immunodeficiency (PID) patients, extensive genetic analysis including whole-exome sequencing (WES) fails to identify the genetic defect. Whole-genome sequencing (WGS) is able to detect variants missed by other genomics platforms, enabling the molecular diag...
