Abstract:The discovery of rare genetic variation through different gene sequencing methods is a very challenging subject in the field of human genetics. A case of a 1-year-old boy with metabolic acidosis and hypokalemia, a small penis, growth retardation, and G-6PD deficiency was reported. Since the clinical symptoms are complex and seem uncorrelated, the authors hypothesized that the child had chromosome or gene problems, and exome sequencing (ES) was applied to samples from him and his parents. Three main locus mutat… Show more
