Nature Genetics, 2016•nature.comStudy of the Greater Middle East (GME), home to approximately 10% of the world's
population, has made invaluable contributions to the characterization of rare genetic
disease, especially recessive conditions arising from the tradition of consanguinity and large
families with multiple children. A new study now reports 1,111 unrelated exomes from the
GME and provides a comprehensive view of genetic variation for enhanced discovery of
disease-associated genes.
