This dataset includes whole genome sequencing of 198 epileptic individuals.

Libraries preparation and whole-genome sequencing: gDNA was cleaned up using ZR-96 DNA Clean & ConcentratorTM-5 Kit (Zymo) prior to being quantified using the Quant-iTTM PicoGreen dsDNA Assay Kit (Life Technologies) and its integrity assessed on agarose gels. Libraries were generated using the TruSeq DNA PCR-Free Library Preparation Kit (Illumina) according to the manufacturer’s recommendations. Libraries were quantified using the Quant-iTTM PicoGreen dsDNA Assay Kit (Life Technologies) and the Kapa Illumina GA with Revised Primers-SYBR Fast Universal kit (Kapa Biosystems). Average size fragment was determined using a LabChip GX (PerkinElmer) instrument. The libraries were denatured in 0.05N NaOH and diluted to 8pM using HT1 buffer. The clustering was done on a Illumina cBot and the flowcell was ran on a HiSeq 2500 for 2x125 cycles (paired-end mode) using v4 chemistry and following the manufacturer's instructions. A phiX library was used as a control and mixed with libraries at 0.01 level.

Bioinformatics: The Illumina control software was HCS 2.2.58, the real-time analysis program was RTA v. 1.18.64. Program bcl2fastq v1.8.4 was used to demultiplex samples and generate fastq reads. The filtered reads were aligned to reference Homo_sapiens assembly b37. Each readset was aligned to creates a Binary Alignment Map file (.bam).EGA dataset EGAD00001004062
