Abstract
Provided herein is a method for identifying a sequence variant in an enriched sample. In certain embodiments, this method may comprise: (a) obtaining: (i) a plurality of sequence reads from a sample that has been enriched for a genomic region and (ii) a reference sequence for the genomic region; (b) assembling the sequence reads to obtain a plurality of discrete sequence assemblies that correspond to potential variants; (c) determining which of the potential variants are true and which are artifacts by examining the sequence reads that make up each of the discrete sequence assemblies; (d) optionally determining whether each of the true potential variants contains a mutation that is known to be associated with the reference sequence; and (e) outputting a report indicating whether the sample comprises a sequence variant.
