Leveraging multiple genomic data to prioritize disease-causing indels from exome sequencing data
Abstract The emergence of exome sequencing in recent years has enabled rapid and cost-effective detection of genetic variants in coding regions and offers a great opportunity to combine sequencing experiments with subsequent computational analysis for dissecting genetic basis of human inherited dise...

Abstract The emergence of exome sequencing in recent years has enabled rapid and cost-effective detection of genetic variants in coding regions and offers a great opportunity to combine sequencing experiments with subsequent computational analysis for dissecting genetic basis of human inherited diseases.

To overcome these obstacles, researchers have been concentrated in the development of advanced computational methods and have recently achieved great progress for analysing single nucleotide variant. Nevertheless, it still remains unclear on how to analyse indels, another type of genetic variant that accounts for substantial proportion of known disease-causing variants.
