Comprehensive identification of pathogenic tandem repeat expansions in sporadic amyotrophic lateral sclerosis: advantages of long-read vs. short-read sequencing

Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) is a neurodegenerative disorder presenting progressive weakness of the bulbar and extremity muscles, leading to a wide-ranging clinical phenotype. More than 30 genes have been associated to genetically inherited ALS yet, approximately 85%–90% of ALS cases are spor...
