The beautiful thing is, we provided genetic diagnosis using EXISTING sequence data - meaning patients with NCF1-CGD lacking a genetic diagnosis, and their at-risk relatives can now know their mutation and risk status.

We masked the pseudogenes and aligned all reads to NCF1, allowing variant calling. (Fig 2A). Using 1000G as a reference, we show that most NCF1-CGD patients carry 6 copies of the 2-base deletion (Fig 2B) and the variant frequency (AltAB) of that is in concordance with ddPCR data (fig 2C)
