Whole Exome Sequencing (wes) Is A Powerful Molecular Technique

Whole exome sequencing (WES) is a powerful molecular technique that has revolutionized medical genetics and diagnostics. The exome refers to the part of the genome that encodes proteins, which is approximately 1-2% of the total genome. WES targets this coding region and allows for the identification of genetic variants that may be responsible for a variety of diseases. Since the exome accounts for the majority of disease-causing mutations
