Whole Exome Sequencing

Description of Whole Exome Sequencing

Whole Exome Sequencing (WES) focuses on protein-coding genes to identify etiological variants in diseases such as hereditary genetic disorders and cancer. This service provides a cost-effective alternative to whole genome sequencing with a high-quality, affordable and convenient solution.

CD Genomics provides a full whole exome sequencing service package including sample standardization, exome capture, library construction, deep sequencing, raw data quality control, and bioinformatics analysis. Through a comprehensive testing you can develop a personalized prevention, health management plan and precise medication guidelines. We can tailor this pipeline to your research interest.

Highlights of Whole Exome Sequencing Service

  • A smaller data set for faster and easier analysis, increased sequence coverage (> 120X), lower cost compared to whole genome sequencing.
  • SNVs, indels, and even low frequency variations can be detected.
  • Strict quality control throughout the pipeline workflow to ensure the accuracy and repeatability of the sequencing.
  • Fast turnaround time.

Applications of Whole Exome Sequencing

  • Disease risk test
  • Precise medication guidelines
  • Personalized health management plan and disease prevention
  • Cancer related mechanism studies
  • Biomarker discovery
  • Drug target discovery
  • Discover rare mutations and detect low frequency mutations
