Discovery and characterization of <i>Alu</i> repeat sequences via precise local read assembly

2015-02-06

Abstract excerpt

<h4>ABSTRACT</h4> Alu insertions have contributed to >11% of the human genome and ~30–35 Alu subfamilies remain actively mobile, yet the characterization of polymorphic Alu insertions from short-read data remains a challenge. We build on existing computational methods to combine Alu detection and de novo assembly of WGS data as a means to reconstruct the full sequence of insertion events from Illumina paired...
