Details and patient eligibility

About

Next generation sequencing (NGS) allows some better diagnostic results, particularly, in the rare diseases field. At a twenty five percent rate, those exams highlight some variants which are not yet described in human pathology. The relationship between a variant found inside a candidate gene and a pathology, is able to be confirmed by functional studies at a protein level. This study aims to build a biological collection to feed further functional studies to confirm the relationship between NGS identified variants, and the clinical signs and symptoms.
