ABSTRACT Background Currently available structural variant (SV) detection methods do not span the complete spectrum of disease‐causing SVs. Optical genome mapping (OGM), an emerging technology with the potential to resolve diagnostic dilemmas, was performed to investigate clinically‐relevant SVs in a 4‐year‐old male with an epileptic encephalopathy of undiagnosed molecular origin. Methods OGM was utilized to image long, megabase‐size DNA molecules, fluorescently labeled at specific sequence motifs throughout the genome with high sensitivity for detection of SVs greater than 500 bp in size. OGM results were confirmed in a CLIA‐certified laboratory via mate‐pair sequencing. Results OGM identified a mosaic, de novo 90 kb deletion and inversion on the X chromosome disrupting the CDKL5 gene. Detection of the mosaic deletion, which had been previously undetected by chromosomal microarray, an infantile epilepsy panel including exon‐level microarray for CDKL5, exome sequencing as well as genome sequencing, resulted in a diagnosis of X‐linked dominant early infantile epileptic encephalopathy‐2. Conclusion OGM affords an effective technology for the detection of SVs, especially those that are mosaic, since these remain difficult to detect with current NGS technologies and with conventional chromosomal microarrays. Further research in undiagnosed populations with OGM is warranted. |
