About Twist Bioscience Alliance Panels

Twist Alliance Panels are a curated collection of high-quality, ready-to-use sequencing panels developed in partnership with leading scientific institutions. By combining Twist’s world-class oligonucleotide synthesis platform with our partners’ deep expertise, these panels provide comprehensive, validated coverage of clinically and scientifically relevant regions. Ready-made and scalable, they streamline workflows, save time and resources, and support research, clinical, and diagnostic applications—so your team can focus on discovery instead of design.

Twist Alliance VCGS Exome v2

High-performance diagnostic exome panel for heritable diseases

When routine testing does not yield a diagnosis, DNA sequencing panels are often the next step—especially for suspected heritable conditions. Developed in collaboration between Victorian Clinical Genetics Services (VCGS) and Twist, the Twist Alliance VCGS Exome v2 provides comprehensive coverage of clinically relevant regions while maintaining high uniformity across the exome.

Key Features

  1. Whole exome coverage (54.82 Mb) with enhanced capture of clinically significant genes (Mendeliome)

  2. Dedicated coverage of pathogenic non-coding loci, ensuring clinically relevant variants outside traditional exons are captured

  3. CNV detection backbone: probes across intergenic regions (~25 kb intervals) improve copy number variation calling

  4. Highly uniform panel optimized for carrier screening, pre-natal, and post-natal testing

Mouse Exome Panel

The mouse is an extremely important model system for studying genetic variation, tumor mutations, and phenotypic outcomes as well as the therapeutic effect of pharmaceutical agents. As genetic variant databases are continuously updated, the Twist Mouse Exome panel is thoughtfully designed and built from the most current databases. When combined with Twist’s expanding portfolio of library preparation and enrichment reagents, the complete toolset allows researchers to achieve industry-leading coverage across target regions while optimizing sequencing cost and sample throughput.

Mouse Strain
Twist Alliance Canine Exome - 40.5 MB

Understanding the genetic variations among dog breeds is crucial for unraveling the genetic regulation of traits and understanding the basis and progression of diseases in dogs. Comprehensive gene panels, such as exomes, play a pivotal role in enhancing veterinary diagnostics and associated clinical medicine. These Next-Generation Sequencing (NGS) panels, like the Twist Alliance Canine Exome developed in collaboration with the Broad Institute’s Karlsson lab, are essential tools for advancing canine genomic research. They contribute to improved understanding of canine cancers and potential therapeutics.

The Twist Alliance Canine Exome panel is designed to achieve the following objectives:

  1. Covers coding exons of canine genes.
  2. Facilitates comparative genomic studies between canine and human genomes.
  3. Includes regions of known importance in human cancers.
  4. Allows for cost-effective deep sequencing.

Furthermore, canine genomic research has demonstrated benefits for human medical research, revealing genetic similarities between human and canine tumors, such as Copy Number Variations (CNVs), differential gene expressions, and structural chromosome abnormalities. This interdisciplinary approach underscores the potential for insights gained in canine genetics to contribute to advancements in human medicine.
