EGAD00001008452	We extracted DNA from whole blood or lymphoblast-derived cell lines and assessed the DNA quality with PicoGreenTM and gel electrophoresis. Whole genome sequencing was performed (Illumina HiSeq2000 and Illumina HiSeq X). WGS reads were mapped to the human reference genome assembly hg19 (GRCh37) using Burrows-Wheeler Aligner v.0.7.12 (TCAG) or Isaac v.2.0.13 (Macrogen). For each genome, we performed local realignment and quality recalibration and detected SNVs and small indels using GATK Haplotype Caller v.3.4.6 without genotype refinement. We detected CNVs using ERDS (estimation by read depth with single nucleotide variants) and CNVnator. We detected structural variants using Manta v.0.29.6. When available by the variant caller (i.e. GATK and Manta), trio-based joint variant calling was conducted for each family.	HiSeq X Five Illumina HiSeq 2000	112
