Exome sequencing in multiplex families with left-sided cardiac defects has high yield for disease gene discovery.
Congenital heart disease (CHD) is a common group of birth defects with a strong genetic contribution to their etiology, but historically the diagnostic yield from exome studies of isolated CHD has been low. Pleiotropy, variable expressivity, and the difficulty of accurately phenotyping newborns cont...
