Abstract New technologies and analysis methods are enabling genomic structural variants (SVs) to be detected with ever-increasing accuracy, resolution, comprehensiveness. Translating these routine research clinical practice requires robust benchmark sets. We developed the first set for identification of both false negative positive germline SVs, which complements recent efforts emphasizing increasingly comprehensive characterization SVs. To create this a broadly consented son in Personal...
With the advent of routine short-read genome sequencing has come a growing recognition importance long-range, structural information in applications ranging from sequence assembly to detection variation. Here we describe Nabsys solid-state detector capable detecting tags on single molecules DNA 100s kilobases length as they translocate through at velocity greater than 1 megabase pair per second. Sequence-specific are detected with high signal-to-noise ratio. The physical distance between is...
Bacterial genetic diversity is often described solely using base-pair changes despite a wide variety of other mutation types likely being major contributors. Tandem duplication/amplifications are thought to be widespread among bacteria but due their often-intractable size and instability, comprehensive studies these mutations rare. We define methodology investigate amplifications in bacterial genomes based on read depth genome sequence data as proxy for copy number. demonstrate the approach...
