CNV Detection with CNAG in Trios[Note]
Line | Child vs. Father | Child vs. Mother | Father vs. Mother | CNV in Child | Type | Comment(s) |
1 | Loss | Loss | Loss | Deletion | De novo | The mother may have a duplication that was not inherited by the child. |
2 | Loss | Loss | No change | Deletion | De novo | Alternatively, both parents might have a duplication that was not inherited by the child. |
3 | Loss | Loss | Gain | Deletion | De novo | The father may have a duplication that was not inherited by the child. |
4 | Loss | No change | Gain | Deletion | Inherited from mother | Alternatively, the father may have a duplication that was not inherited by the child. |
5 | Loss | Gain | Gain | None | … | The father may have a duplication and the mother may have a deletion, but the child has a normal disomic copy number. Both of the child’s copies may be on one chromosome. |
6 | No change | Loss | Loss | Deletion | Inherited from father | Alternatively, the mother may have a duplication that was not inherited by the child. |
7 | No change | No change | No change | None | … | Alternatively, the child and both parents may all have the same deletion or duplication. |
8 | No change | Gain | Gain | Duplication | Inherited from father | Alternatively, the mother may have a deletion that was not inherited by the child. |
9 | Gain | Loss | Loss | None | … | The father may have a deletion and the mother may have a duplication, but the child has a normal disomic copy number. Both of the child’s copies may be on one chromosome. |
10 | Gain | No change | Loss | Duplication | Inherited from mother | Alternatively, the father may have a deletion that was not inherited by child. |
11 | Gain | Gain | Loss | Duplication | De novo | The father may have a deletion that was not inherited by the child. |
12 | Gain | Gain | No change | Duplication | De novo | Alternatively, both parents may have a deletion that was not inherited by the child. |
13 | Gain | Gain | Gain | Duplication | De novo | The mother may have a deletion that was not inherited by the child. |
Note.— “Loss,” “gain,” or “no change” of copy number refers to the first individual listed in comparison with the second individual listed. Our goal in this trio analysis was to identify de novo CNVs in the affected child. If the child showed the same copy-number change (gain or loss) in comparison with both parents, the child’s CNV was considered to have arisen de novo, regardless of whether the copy number in both parents was the same.
