El Genoma humano está integrado por regiones codificantes (contiene la información para la síntesis de proteínas), llamado exons. Estas regiones representan aproximadamente el 1-2% of the human genome, pero contiene la información de todos los genes que integran nuestro genoma humano aproximadamente 20,000 genes.
The whole exome sequencing (WES) es una técnica que permite analizar solo estas regiones codificantes. Con este análisis se puede identificar mutaciones (alteraciones genéticas) causantes de enfermedades.
Applications:
Diagnosis of diseases of genetic origin.
Identification of disease-associated mutations.
Pronóstico de una enfermedad
- Identificación de riesgo de enfermedades hereditarias, como el cáncer
Near the 85% of human genetic diseases or conditions are caused by changes in the sequence of the DNA, i.e., due to mutations located in the exons.
These mutations often cause syndromes, a set of metabolic characteristics that in some way affect the correct performance of our body.
La secuenciación de EXOMA nos permite detectar de manera puntual cuáles alteraciones genéticas son las que se encuentran presentes y de esta manera facilitar el diagnostico y tratamiento más adecuado.
The complete sequencing of the EXOMA can be used to identify the molecular basis of the disorder in an affected individual. This test is different from other types of genetic diagnostic tests in terms of the number of genes that are sequenced simultaneously, it provides a higher diagnostic rate than 32% by detecting single nucleotide variants (SNPs), deletions and small duplications (CNVs).
There are many complex clinical situations and multiple diagnostic options, it is complicated to know which is the most appropriate study. That is why we offer you an appointment for advice on your clinical picture and the diagnostic options we have. NO COST

- The fundamental advantage of complete EXOMA sequencing is to be able to obtain the sequence of all functional genes at a much lower cost than one by one.
- Solves complex diagnostic cases.
- The broad genetic spectrum covered: superior diagnostics compared to conventional methods of other genetic tests, such as single gene analysis or frequent mutation panels.
- It is only necessary to undergo the study once in a lifetime. Our genetic information remains in the same state over time, so the information you get now, will be almost identical in a few years. This allows a periodic review in case of new related scientific evidence, at no additional cost.
