Abstract

See full text

The present disclosure provides systems and methods to detect somatic or germline variants by providing a predetermined genomic DNA (gDNA) to an assay mixture, and capturing a sample of a subject's genetic information using a DNA sequencer and detecting genetic variants from the genetic information. A mutation may then be classified as being from a germline source if gDNA derived molecules have lengths inconsistent with those expected from cell-free DNA (cfDNA) derived molecules.
