摘要：

Purpose: Clinical exome and gene panel testing can provide molecular diagnoses for patients with rare Mendelian disorders, but for many patients these tests are nonexplanatory. We investigated whether interrogation of alternative transcripts in known disease genes could provide answers for additional patients. Methods: We integrated alternative transcripts for known neonatal epilepsy genes with RNA-Seq data to identify brain-expressed coding regions that are not evaluated by popular neonatal epilepsy clinical gene panel and exome tests. Results: We found brain-expressed alternative coding regions in 89 (30%) of 292 neonatal epilepsy genes. The 147 regions encompass 15,713 bases that are noncoding in the primary transcripts analyzed by the clinical tests. Alternative coding regions from at least 5 genes carry reported pathogenic variants. Three candidate variants in these regions were identified in public exome data from 337 epilepsy patients. Incorporating alternative transcripts into the analysis of neonatal epilepsy genes in 44 patient genomes identified the pathogenic variant for the epilepsy case and 2 variants of uncertain significance (VUS) among the 43 control cases. Conclusion: Assessment of alternative transcripts in exon-based clinical genetic tests, including gene panel, exome, and genome sequencing, may provide diagnoses for patients for whom standard testing is unrevealing, without introducing many VUS.
