  • 摘要:We demonstrate the application of whole exome sequencing to discover the rare variants for congenital pouch colon, acronymed CPC. For 18 affected individuals in a total of 64 samples, we sequenced coding regions to a mean coverage of 100×. A sufficient depth of ca. 94% of targeted exomes was achieved. Filtering against the public SNP/variant repositories, we identified a host of candidate genes, EPB41L4A and CTC1 associated with colon, neural/brain muscles and Dyskeratosis Congenita maladies. Furthermore, the stop gain mutations in the form of JAG1,OR5AR1,SLC22A24,PEX16,TSPAN32,TAF1B,MAP2K3 and SLC25A19 appears to be localized to Chromosomes 2, 11, 17 and 20 in addition to the three stop lost mutants across three genes, viz. OAS2, GBA3 and PKD1L2 affecting the colon tissue. While our results have paved way for transcendence of monogenic traits in identifying the genes underlying rare genetic disorders, it will provide helpful clues for further investigating genetic factors associated with anorectal anomalies, particularly CPC.
