Info:
Researchers from VIB Center for Molecular Neurology, Antwerp Belgium and University of Antwerp assess using the ONT Promethion for Structural Varian detection in the genome of Yoruban reference individual NA19240. Several variant calling tools were evaluated and compared to short-read sequencing variant calls. A scalable workflow is discussed and future study is considered.
The BluePippin was used for High Pass DNA size selection prior to library construction.
