Diverse human genomes [PDF]

Nature Methods, 2020
A study in Science shows that anthropologically informed approaches to genome sequencing can provide a fuller understanding of human genetic variation, including new insights into how past events have led to present-day population structure.

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

Nature 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

Genome 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.

The effects of common structural variants on 3D chromatin structure

BMC 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).

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

BMC 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.

The Warburg effect is necessary to promote glycosylation in the blastema during zebrafish tail regeneration

npj Regenerative Medicine, 2021
Throughout their lifetime, fish maintain a high capacity for regenerating complex tissues after injury. We utilized a larval tail regeneration assay in the zebrafish Danio rerio, which serves as an ideal model of appendage regeneration due to its easy ...

Phenotypic variance explained by local ancestry in admixed African Americans

Frontiers in Genetics, 2015
We surveyed 26 quantitative traits and disease outcomes to understand the proportion of phenotypic variance explained by local ancestry in admixed African Americans. After inferring local ancestry as the number of African-ancestry chromosomes at hundreds

SVachra: a tool to identify genomic structural variation in mate pair sequencing data containing inward and outward facing reads

BMC Genomics, 2017
Background Characterization of genomic structural variation (SV) is essential to expanding the research and clinical applications of genome sequencing.
