Familial co-segregation and the emerging role of long-read sequencing to re-classify variants of uncertain significance in inherited retinal diseases

Abstract Phasing genetic variants is essential in determining those that are potentially disease-causing. In autosomal recessive inherited retinal diseases (IRDs), reclassification of variants of uncertain significance (VUS) can provide a genetic diagnosis in indeterminate compound heterozygote case...
