Abstract
The invention generally relates to method for assessing a genomic region of a subject. In certain embodiments, methods of the invention involve obtaining a sample including nucleic acid from a subject. The nucleic acid includes a target sequence from a target genomic region and a paralogous sequence from a non-target genomic region. The target sequence and the paralogous sequence are isolated from the sample. The target sequence and the paralogous sequence are sequenced to obtain sequence reads that include target sequence reads and paralogous sequence reads. The paralogous sequence reads are excluded, and the genomic region of the subject are assessed based on the target sequence reads.
