Clinically-relevant postzygotic mosaicism in parents and children with developmental disorders in trio exome sequencing data

Systematic analysis of postzygotic mosaicism (PZM) is difficult due to challenges in detecting such events. Here, Wright et al. analyse trio exome sequencing data from blood and saliva of 4,293 probands with developmental disorders from the DDD Study and estimate that >3% of causative de novo mut...
