Assembly of 43 diverse human Y chromosomes reveals extensive complexity and variation

2022-12-01

Abstract excerpt

The prevalence of highly repetitive sequences within the human Y chromosome has led to its incomplete assembly and systematic omission from genomic analyses. Here, we present long-read de novo assemblies of 43 diverse Y chromosomes spanning 180,000 years of human evolution, including two from deep-rooted African Y lineages, and report remarkable complexity and diversity in chromosome size and structure, in contra...
