Abstrakt: The advent of next-generation sequencing (NGS) technologies has greatly expanded our understanding of both the clinical spectra and genetic landscape of inborn errors of immunity (IEIs). Endogamous populations may be enriched for unique, ancestry-specific disease-causing variants, a consideration that significantly impacts molecular testing and analysis strategies. Herein, we report on the application of a 2-step NGS-based testing approach beginning with targeted gene panels (TGPs) tailored to specific IEI subtypes and reflexing to whole exome sequencing (WES) if negative for Northwest Algerian patients with suspected IEIs. Our overall diagnostic yield of 57% is comparable to others broadly applying short-read NGS to IEI detection, but data from our localized cohort show some similarities and differences from NGS studies performed on larger regional IEI cohorts. This suggests the importance of tailoring diagnostic strategies to local demographics and needs, but also highlights ongoing concerns inherent to the application of genomics for clinical IEI diagnostics.
