Accurate diagnosis of spinal muscular atrophy and 22q11.2 deletion syndrome using limited deoxynucleotide triphosphates and high-resolution melting
Abstract Background Copy number variation (CNV) has been implicated in the genetics of multiple human diseases.Spinal muscular atrophy (SMA) and 22q11.2 deletion syndrome (22q11.2DS) are two of the most common diseases which are caused by DNA copy number variations.Genetic diagnostics for these conditions would be enhanced by more accurate and effi
