Exome data #6

Hi, is it possible to apply this (interesting) package to exome sequencing data? (I think all required inputs could be also available from WES...).

Thanks

In some way, the breakpoint graph construction step might be possible for WES. However, It will be painful to fine-tune CNV/SV parameters. In addition, some tools used in InfoGenomeR may not work for WES. I have not tried yet. The allele-specific and haplotype graph step will not be possible for WES as well.

I recommend other exome-specific tools that can detect CNVs and SVs in WES.

Thanks!
