What is the difference between Whole Genome Sequencing (WGS) and Whole Exome Sequencing (WES)?

The exome (WES) sequences only the 2% of the genome that contains the instructions for making proteins. ULTRA with WGS sequences 100%, including the remaining 98%. Today we know that in these "non-coding" regions, there are thousands of crucial genetic variants that regulate gene activity and health. WGS offers a comprehensive view that does not become obsolete.
