Single ExomeXtra®

Comprehensive whole exome diagnostics of all clinically relevant alterations

The exome accounts for only about 2% of the whole genome, approximately 85% of all known disease causing variants are located within the exons. In addition, our proprietary design also covers more than 46,000 non-coding variants described as disease-relevant in the databases HGMD and ClinVar. Our singleton exome enrichment, providing deep and homogenous coverage of all known disease-causing regions of the genome.

Single ExomeXtra® is the best possible whole exome diagnostics (WES) test for an individual patient. Based on a precise description of the patient’s phenotype, an individualized list of candidate genes associated with their symptoms is created. This includes all clinically relevant genes, as well as genes associated with differential diagnoses, based on the Human Phenotype Ontology (HPO) and internal databases.
