Boost diagnostic yield with Exome + Mito Sequencing
The Operify ExomeMito Panel offers a unified solution by integrating whole exome sequencing with complete mitochondrial genome analysis—addressing both nuclear and mitochondrial causes of disease.
This combined approach is especially valuable in diagnosing complex, multisystemic, and rare disorders, where variants may exist across both genomes.
Mitochondrial disorders, though individually rare, are clinically significant, affecting approximately 1 in 5,000 individuals and often missed in standard testing.
Studies show that adding mitochondrial sequencing to exome testing increases diagnostic yield by up to 20%, offering greater clarity and clinical confidence. (PMID: 30369941)
While screening for rare genetic disorders, it's essential not to overlook the rarest among them-mitochondrial disorders, which occur in approximately 1 in 5,000 individuals. Although individually rare, their cumulative impact is significant in the context of rare disease diagnostics. Multiple studies have demonstrated a substantial increase in diagnostic yield—up to 20%—when mitochondrial genome sequencing is performed alongside whole exome sequencing. Reference: PMID: 30369941
