OMGS: Optical Map-based Genome Scaffolding [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Computational Biology, 2019
Abstract Due to the current limitations of sequencing technologies, de novo genome assembly is typically carried out in two stages, namely contig (sequence) assembly and scaffolding.

Comparative genetics of Enterococcus faecalis intestinal tissue isolates before and after surgery in a rat model of colon anastomosis. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
We have recently demonstrated that collagenolytic Enterococcus faecalis plays a key and causative role in the pathogenesis of anastomotic leak, an uncommon but potentially lethal complication characterized by disruption of the intestinal wound following ...

Identification of an NF1 Microdeletion with Optical Genome Mapping

open access: yesInternational Journal of Molecular Sciences, 2023
Neurofibromatosis type 1 (NF1) is a clinically heterogeneous neurocutaneous disorder inherited in autosomal dominant manner. Approximately 5–10% of the cases are caused by NF1 microdeletions involving the NF1 gene and its flanking regions. Microdeletions, which lead to more severe clinical manifestations, can be subclassified into four different types (

Long-read technologies identify a hidden inverted duplication in a family with choroideremia

open access: yesHGG Advances, 2021
Summary: The lack of molecular diagnoses in rare genetic diseases can be explained by limitations of current standard genomic technologies. Upcoming long-read techniques have complementary strengths to overcome these limitations, with a particular ...

Optical genome mapping in an atypical Pelizaeus-Merzbacher prenatal challenge

open access: yesFrontiers in Genetics, 2023
Pathogenic genetic variants represent a challenge in prenatal counseling, especially when clinical presentation in familial carriers is atypical. We describe a prenatal case involving a microarray-detected duplication of PLP1 which causes X-linked ...

Identification of Structural Variation in Chimpanzees Using Optical Mapping and Nanopore Sequencing. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
Recent efforts to comprehensively characterize great ape genetic diversity using short-read sequencing and single-nucleotide variants have led to important discoveries related to selection within species, demographic history, and lineage-specific traits.

Genome maps across 26 human populations reveal population-specific patterns of structural variation. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
Large structural variants (SVs) in the human genome are difficult to detect and study by conventional sequencing technologies. With long-range genome analysis platforms, such as optical mapping, one can identify large SVs (>2 kb) across the genome in ...

Chromosomal-level assembly of the Asian Seabass genome using long sequence reads and multi-layered scaffolding [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
We report here the ~670 Mb genome assembly of the Asian seabass (Lates calcarifer), a tropical marine teleost. We used long-read sequencing augmented by transcriptomics, optical and genetic mapping along with shared synteny from closely related fish ...
