After performing analysis of whole genome sequencing from a candidate that grew on SC-H in the initial screen, you are unable to identify a causative mutation. Which of the following options is a likely explanation for why this mutant passed the initial screen? Select all that apply. A. The mutation is a truncation mutation and Illumina sequencing only provides information for missense mutations. B. One of the missense mutations you analyzed is actually causative, but the factor has not been previously linked to transcription. C. The causative mutation lies in a sequence coverage gap. D. The mutation is in a hypothetical protein and uncategorized genes cannot be sequenced by Illumina technology.
