Identification of an NF1 Microdeletion with Optical Genome Mapping
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 (

Addition of the microchromosome GGA25 to the chicken genome sequence assembly through radiation hybrid and genetic mapping [PDF]
BACKGROUND: The publication of the first draft chicken sequence assembly became available in 2004 and was updated in 2006. However, this does not constitute a definitive and complete sequence of the chicken genome, since the microchromosomes are ...

Optical mapping approaches to molecular genomics
A variety of physical mapping methods exist for the analysis of nucleic acids or genomes, including hybridization, sequence tagged site mapping, restriction enzyme fingerprinting, radiation hybrid mapping and optical mapping. Single-molecule approaches offer numerous advantages, including very high resolution, small sample size requirements, and ...

AGORA: Assembly Guided by Optical Restriction Alignment
Background Genome assembly is difficult due to repeated sequences within the genome, which create ambiguities and cause the final assembly to be broken up into many separate sequences (contigs).
