Patent Searching and Data


Title:
性染色体におけるコピー数変異を判定するための方法
Document Type and Number:
Japanese Patent JP6521956
Kind Code:
B2
Abstract:
The invention provides methods for determining copy number of the Y chromosome, including, but not limited to, methods for gender determination or Y chromosome aneuploidy of fetus using maternal samples comprising maternal and fetal cell free DNA. Some embodiments disclosed herein describe a strategy for filtering out (or masking) non-discriminant sequence reads on chromosome Y using representative training set of female samples. In some embodiments, this filtering strategy is also applicable to filtering autosomes for evaluation of copy number variation of sequences on the autosomes. In some embodiments, methods are provided for determining copy number variation (CNV) of any fetal aneuploidy, and CNVs known or suspected to be associated with a variety of medical conditions. Also disclosed are systems for evaluation of CNV of sequences of interest on the Y chromosome and other chromosomes.
