Improving the diagnostic yield of exome- sequencing by predicting gene–phenotype associations using large-scale gene expression analysis

A genetic diagnosis remains unattainable for many individuals with a rare disease because of incomplete knowledge about the genetic basis of many diseases. Here, the authors present the web-based tool GADO (GeneNetwork Assisted Diagnostic Optimization) that uses public RNA-seq data for prioritizatio...
