No Genome Test report reads ATAD3A yet. The test sequences your whole genome, so your data includes it all the same.
How ATAD3A is laid out
- Coding sequence
- Untranslated region
- Intron
- Direction of transcription
- Known disease-causing sites
- Stretches short reads find hard
Exons of the gene's MANE Select transcript (release v1.5), from NCBI and EMBL-EBI, on the GRCh38 reference genome.
Chromosome bands from UCSC's GRCh38 ideogram (2022-10-29).
Nearby genes from Ensembl release 116, on GRCh38.
Exons make up 2.5 kb of the gene's 22.5 kb; 1,761 of those bases code for the protein.
How a genome test reads ATAD3A
16
positions in ATAD3A where ClinVar classes a change as pathogenic or likely pathogenic
16 of them (100%) fall in regions short reads find hard.
- Low mappability (10 sites)Regions where 100 bp or 250 bp reads cannot be placed uniquely.
- Segmental duplications (16 sites)Copies of at least 1 kb sharing at least 90% identity with another part of the genome (paralogues, pseudogenes); reads may align to the wrong copy.
A whole genome covers all 22.5 kb of ATAD3A, introns included, not only the 2.5 kb of exons.
