Abstract Nonsyndromic oculocutaneous Albinism (nsOCA) is clinically characterized by the loss of pigmentation in skin, hair, and iris. OCA amongst most common causes vision impairment children. To date, pathogenic variants six genes have been identified individuals with nsOCA. Here, we determined identities, frequencies, clinical consequences alleles 94 previously unreported Pakistani families. Combination Sanger Exome sequencing revealed 38 alleles, including 22 novel variants, segregating...
Clinical exome sequencing (CES) is an established method for genetic diagnosis and used widely in clinical practice. Studies of the parental experience CES, which inform guidelines best practices counseling, have been predominately comprised White, non-Latinx participants. The aim this study was to explore experiences CES a Latinx community understand how their are influenced by culture language.
