Abstract excerpt
The aim of this study was to identify artificial single-nucleotide variants (SNVs) in degraded trace DNA samples. In a preliminary study, blood samples were stored for up to 120 days and whole-genome sequencing was performed using the Snakemake workflow dna-seq-gatk-variant-calling to identify positions that vary between the time point 0 sample and the aged samples. In a follow-up study on blood and saliva...
