The Exome Sequencing is also called as Whole Exome Sequencing and it is a transcriptomics technique for sequencing the protein coding genes in a genome also called as exome. The exome shows less than 2% of the genome but also consist of -85% disease related variants. These variants are responsible for various diseases like Polygenic and Mendelian diseases in the human body whereas the Exome Sequencing is used in both as a clinical diagnosis and in academic research as well.
There is no special prior preparation is needed for the test, This test is recently developed for the measurement of the changes in the DNA that are related to their medical concern or causative A patient must consult to the doctor when undergoing this test and follow the instructions and take precautions during the Whole Exome Sequencing test. In general the test is the when the patient physical exam finding and medical history strongly shows that there is an underlying genetic etiology in the body.
It helps in identifying the variants in the body for various applicants including genetic disease, cancer studies, and population genetics. Catch up comprehensive coverage of the coding regions. It can analyze the whole genome approach. It helps in to detect the health of the patient.
There are so many procedures to get the test done. It depends on the doctor and the condition of the patient what type of test they prefer for the patient. Next generation technology test is used to cover the coding region and then the DNA will be extracted from the patient body and the other method is polymerase chain reaction method which is used to simplify targeted region in the body. There are so many other tests can be performed for this it totally depends on the doctor and the condition of a patient.
