MOLECULAR GENETICS CORE (CORE F) ABSTRACT The fields of molecular genetic and genomic technology, instrumentation and data handling/analysis have undergone revolutionary changes in the previous 5 years of the IDDRC grant to Boston Children's Hospital. Many of these changes, including a dramatic reduction in price, has made exome or genome sequencing within reach of individual laboratory investigators and clinicians. It is now possible to obtain exome/genome sequences on families or individuals with intellectual and developmental disabilities and determine the underlying genetic cause of the problem-- leading to more accurate diagnoses and targets for therapeutic intervention. The technology and interpretation of the output data is very complicated, and is often beyond the expertise of individual laboratories or clinicians. The Boston Children's Hospital's IDDRC Molecular Genetics Core laboratory has evolved with these revolutionary changes and represents a central location to which IDDRC investigators can obtain advice on project design and outsourcing to the best and least expensive vendors. Additionally, IDDRC investigators can receive training and assistance in analyzing the resulting data, such that they will have a smooth path to new gene discovery. This benefits both their NIH supported research as well as individual patients and their families. Some investigator needs have not changed over the past 5 years. There is still the need for confirmatory sequence verification, as well as advice on functional studies. The demand for our economical array-based transcriptome studies and PCR analysis continues to grow. Sometimes laboratories or cores can collaborate on projects, saving time and money for all parties, but need assistance on how to find a suitable partner. The Molecular Genomics Core facilitates all of the above and more; all of these functions are combined in one central laboratory available easily to all IDDRC investigators and their lab members. This produces an economy of scale and a place for training and collaboration. The Molecular Genetics Core Laboratory will emphasize the following specific aims: Aim 1: Provision of general design, implantation, and interpretation of IDDRC studies. Aim 2: Obtaining the best available price, quality, and turnaround time for Next Generation Sequencing (NGS) for the study of IDD/Neurodevelopment. Aim 3: Producing high quality Array and other Services on demand. Aim 4: Training and intellectual development for our researchers and clinicians. Aim 5: Assisting in collaborations within and outside the Boston Children's Hospital IDDRC.

分子遗传学核心（核F） 抽象的 分子遗传和基因组技术，仪器和数据处理/分析的领域具有 在IDDRC赠款给波士顿儿童医院的前5年中，经历了革命性的变化。 这些变化中有许多（包括急剧降低价格）已成为外显子组或基因组测序 在个人实验室研究人员和临床医生的范围内。现在可以获得外显子/基因组 关于智力和发育障碍的家庭或个人的序列，并确定 问题的根本遗传原因 - 导致更准确的诊断和治疗目标 干涉。 输出数据的技术和解释非常复杂，并且通常超出了专业知识 个别实验室或临床医生。波士顿儿童医院的IDDRC分子遗传学核心 实验室随着这些革命性的变化而发展，代表了IDDRC的中心位置 调查人员可以获得有关项目设计和外包最佳和最便宜供应商的建议。 此外，IDDRC调查人员可以接受培训和协助以分析结果数据，以便 他们将有一条通往新基因发现的平稳途径。这也受益于他们的NIH支持研究 作为个别患者及其家人。 在过去的5年中，一些调查人员的需求没有改变。仍然需要确认 序列验证以及功能研究的建议。对我们经济阵列的需求 转录组研究和PCR分析继续增长。有时实验室或核心可以合作 在项目上，为各方节省时间和金钱，但需要有关如何找到合适合作伙伴的帮助。这 分子基因组学核心促进了上述所有内容；所有这些功能都合并为一个 中央实验室可以轻松地提供给所有IDDRC调查人员及其实验室成员。这会产生一个 规模经济和培训与协作的场所。分子遗传学核心实验室将 强调以下特定目标： 目的1：提供IDDRC研究的一般设计，植入和解释。 目标2：获得下一代最佳的价格，质量和周转时间 用于研究IDD/神经发育的测序（NGS）。 目标3：按需生产高质量的阵列和其他服务。 目标4：为我们的研究人员和临床医生培训和智力发展。 AIM 5：协助波士顿儿童医院IDDRC内外的合作。
