Research Abstract

Next-generation sequencing and high-density microarray analysis were used to investigate disease-causing genes for genetic diseases in which molecular pathogenesis had not been clarified. We successfully identified a pathogenic gene for a subtype of myopathies in one family. We also identified novel disease-causing genes in a congenital anomaly syndrome and an endocrine disorder. The results would lead to the understanding of the pathogenesis of these disorders and the development of therapeutic means.
