Merqury: reference-free quality, completeness, and phasing assessment for genome assemblies

open access: yesGenome Biology, 2020
Recent long-read assemblies often exceed the quality and completeness of available reference genomes, making validation challenging. Here we present Merqury, a novel tool for reference-free assembly evaluation based on efficient k-mer set operations.

The Sequence of the Human Genome [PDF]

open access: yesScience, 2001
A 2.91-billion base pair (bp) consensus sequence of the euchromatic portion of the human genome was generated by the whole-genome shotgun sequencing method. The 14.8-billion bp DNA sequence was generated over 9 months from 27,271,853 high-quality sequence reads (5.11-fold coverage of the genome) from both ends of plasmid clones made from the DNA of ...

The complete sequence of a human genome

open access: yesbioRxiv, 2021
In 2001, Celera Genomics and the International Human Genome Sequencing Consortium published their initial drafts of the human genome, which revolutionized the field of genomics.

Expressing the human genome [PDF]

open access: yesNature, 2001
We have searched the human genome for genes encoding new proteins that may be involved in three nuclear gene expression processes: transcription, pre-messenger RNA splicing and polyadenylation. A plethora of potential new factors are implicated by sequence in nuclear gene expression, revealing a substantial but selective increase in complexity compared

Profiling variable-number tandem repeat variation across populations using repeat-pangenome graphs

open access: yesNature Communications, 2021
Variable number tandem repeats (VNTRs) are difficult to analyze by short-read sequencing in disease studies. Here, the authors describe a VNTR mapping strategy for short-read analyses using a repeat pangenome graph.

Truvari: refined structural variant comparison preserves allelic diversity

open access: yesGenome Biology, 2022
The fundamental challenge of multi-sample structural variant (SV) analysis such as merging and benchmarking is identifying when two SVs are the same.

A genome-wide mutational constraint map quantified from variation in 76,156 human genomes

open access: yesbioRxiv, 2022
The depletion of disruptive variation caused by purifying natural selection (constraint) has been widely used to investigate protein-coding genes underlying human disorders, but attempts to assess constraint for non-protein-coding regions have proven ...

The effects of common structural variants on 3D chromatin structure

open access: yesBMC Genomics, 2020
Background Three-dimensional spatial organization of chromosomes is defined by highly self-interacting regions 0.1–1 Mb in size termed Topological Associating Domains (TADs).

Pan-genomics in the human genome era

open access: yesNature Reviews Genetics, 2020
Since the early days of the genome era, the scientific community has relied on a single 'reference' genome for each species, which is used as the basis for a wide range of genetic analyses, including studies of variation within and across species. As sequencing costs have dropped, thousands of new genomes have been sequenced, and scientists have come ...

Low-level variant calling for non-matched samples using a position-based and nucleotide-specific approach

open access: yesBMC Bioinformatics, 2021
Background The widespread use of next-generation sequencing has identified an important role for somatic mosaicism in many diseases. However, detecting low-level mosaic variants from next-generation sequencing data remains challenging.
