Figure 2: Distribution of the detected high-quality rare coding and noncoding variants detected in 30 HB patients.
Sequence ontology of the rare coding variants detected after selection by the read depth (>10), Phred score (>20), alternative allele frequency (>0.35), and population frequency (<1%). A total of 2107 variants were classified into 1671 missense mutations and 436 LoF variants.
Sequence ontology of the rare noncoding variants detected after selection by the read depth (>10), Phred score (>20), alternative allele frequency (>0.35), and population frequency (<0.1%). A total of 2,070 noncoding variants were distributed in intronic, intergenic, and 3’ and 5’ UTRs.
Figure 3 : Frequency of high-quality rare germline coding variants mapped to DNA repair genes in HB patients and a control group. A list of 220 DNA repair genes distributed in 16 categories was analyzed; the 12 categories with variants detected in either patients or controls are represented. PARP – poly (ADP-ribose) polymerase. * p value 0.0338; Fisher’s test.
