Inferring fetal fractions from read heterozygosity empowers the noninvasive prenatal screening

PURPOSE: Fetal fraction (FF) is the percent of cell-free DNA (cfDNA) in the mother’s peripheral blood that is of fetal origin, which plays a pivotal role in noninvasive prenatal screening (NIPS). We present a method that can reliably estimate FFs by examining autosome single-nucleotide polymorphisms...
