Abstract excerpt
Here, we describe approaches using droplet digital polymerase chain reaction (ddPCR) to validate and quantify somatic mosaic events contributed by transposable-element insertions, copy-number variants, and single-nucleotide variants. In the ddPCR assay, sample or template DNA is partitioned into tens of thousands of individual droplets such that when DNA input is low, the vast majority of droplets contains no...
