SUMMARY
Exome chips and exome sequencing serve different purposes in genomic analysis. An exome chip, specifically an exome genotyping array, is designed for genotyping known variants in the exome, while exome sequencing provides comprehensive coverage of all coding regions, allowing for the discovery of novel variants. The discussion clarifies that the choice between these two methods depends on the research goals, such as whether the focus is on known variants or a broader exploration of the exome.
