Abstract Copy number variants (CNV) contribute significantly to the pathogenic variation associated with developmental disorders. CNV detection is often not included in standard exome sequencing (ES) analysis. Complementary methods such as chromosomal microarray are typically offered in diagnostic laboratories to diagnose pathogenic CNV.

| Nature Verified
Abstract Epigenetic modifications influence gene expression levels, impact organismal traits, and play a role in the development of diseases. Therefore, variants in genes involved in epigenetic processes are likely to be important in disease susceptibility, and the frequency of variants may vary between populations with African and European ancestries.
