Optical mapping was performed on genomic DNA from the proband by running dual enzymes (BspQI, BssSI) on the Bionano Genomics (San Diego, CA, USA) Saphyr platform (https://bionanogenomics.com/support-page/saphyr-system). Analysis was performed as described previously (Eisfeldt et al. 2019 (link)). Briefly, the optical maps were analyzed using Bionano-solve (Bionano-solve">https://bionanogenomics.com/support-page/Bionano-solve), aligned to Hg19 reference genome using Bionano RefAligner (version 5649) and output files were converted into VCF files using a custom script (https://github.com/J35P312/smap2vcf). Variants of interest were visualized in Bionano access.
