Zusammenfassung:The invention provides methods for non-invasive prenatal testing that allow for detecting risk of chromosomal and subchromosomal abnormalities, including but not limited to aneuploidies, 5 microdeletions and microduplications, insertions, translocations, inversions and small-size mutations including point mutations and mutational signatures. The methods of the invention utilize a pool of TArget Capture Sequences (TACS) to enrich for sequences of interest in a mixed sample containing both maternal and fetal DNA, followed by massive parallel sequencing and statistical analysis of the enriched population to thereby detect the risk of a genetic abnormality 10 in the fetal DNA. Kits for carrying out the methods of the invention are also provided.
