What is Targeted Sequencing?
Targeted sequencing is a methodology whereby distinct genomic regions of interest of the organism you’re studying are captured or selected for deeper sequencing depth.
The primary processes used include amplicon sequencing and hybrid capture.
Why is Targeted Sequencing Important?
For scientists only interested in certain regions of the genome, targeted sequencing is more efficient and cost-effective than whole-genome sequencing and can yield specific, in-depth insights.
It can detect disease-related variants, inherited germline mutations, and CRISPR gene editing events. It can also target well-characterized variants within exons and methylation regions, as well as low-frequency variants.
