Introduction and Workflow
- Custom DNA Sequencing (also know as Gene Panel Sequencing) concentrate on specific genes or genomic regions of interest, allowing for in-depth analysis of mutations that are most relevant to particular diseases or conditions.
- The process begins with the selection of specific genes or regions, followed by the amplification of these targets through PCR. Sequencing is then performed on the amplified regions, ensuring high coverage and accuracy.
- Advanced bioinformatics tools are employed to analyze the sequencing data, providing detailed insights into genetic variants, their potential impact, and relevance to disease.
- Targeted sequencing is widely used in clinical settings for the diagnosis of genetic disorders, personalized medicine, and cancer genomics, providing actionable insights that can directly impact patient care.
Advantage
- Focuses on specific genes or genomic regions, providing high-resolution analysis of mutations that are most relevant to particular diseases or conditions.
- Delivers deep coverage of targeted regions, increasing the likelihood of detecting low-frequency variants and rare mutations.
- The streamlined workflow and reduced data set enable quicker data processing and analysis, allowing for more rapid diagnostic and research outcomes.
- Widely used in clinical settings, targeted sequencing enables the identification of actionable genetic variants that can guide personalized treatment strategies.

Applications of Custom Sequencing
- Microbial Genomics- Focuses on infectious disease research by targeting specific microbial genes to identify and characterize pathogens, improving diagnostic accuracy and outbreak tracking.
- Cancer Genomics- Applies targeted DNA sequencing to detect mutations in cancer-related genes, enhancing diagnostic precision, prognostic assessments, and the selection of targeted therapies for better cancer management.
- Inherited Genetic Disorders- Identifies disease-causing variants in genes associated with hereditary conditions, facilitating early diagnosis and the development of personalized treatment plans.
- Pharmacogenomics- Evaluates genetic variations that influence individual responses to medications, enabling optimization of drug therapy and reduction of adverse effects through tailored treatment approaches.
- Personalized Healthcare- Uses targeted sequencing to analyze genetic variants in a patient's DNA, influencing disease risk, treatment responses, and overall health management, supporting a more customized approach to healthcare.
