Autosomal Recessive Transmission Workflow
Autosomal recessive transmission reports results merged from two workflows, homozygous and compound heterozygous.
• | A single gene contains a variant that is on an autosomal chromosome and: |
• | Homozygous (1/1) in an affected subject |
• | Heterozygous (0/1) or not present (0/0) in an unaffected subject |
Typical Autosomal Recessive (Homozygous) Transmission Logic
-
Unaffected

Homozygous Transmission Workflow |
Subject |
|
All variants on autosomal chromosomes |
|
All variants that are homozygous (1/1) in the subject |
|
All variants that are homozygous (1/1) in affected subjects |
|
All variants that are heterozygous (0/1) or not present in unaffected subjects |
|
All variants present in the mother and father |
|
Filtering results: Deleterious variants |
• | A single gene contains: |
• | The same gene contains 2 heterozygous (0/1 and 0/1) variants in an affected subject |
• | Both variants are not present (0/0 and 0/0) in an unaffected subject |
• | Both variants are on an autosomal chromosome |
Typical Autosomal Recessive Transmission (Compound Heterozygous) Logic

Compound Heterozygous Workflow |
Subject |
|
All variants on autosomal chromosomes |
|
All compound heterozygous variants (0/1), if at least two heterozygous variants are in the same gene |
|
All heterozygous variants (0/1) in affected subjects |
|
All variants that are heterozygous (0/1) or not present in unaffected subjects |
|
All variants in a gene if an unaffected subject overlaps remaining variants in that gene |
|
Variants not present in the mother or father |
|
All variants in a gene if either parent has no overlapping variants with the proband in that gene |
|
Variants in a gene if less than two variants remain on that gene |
|
Filtering results: Deleterious variants |
