Resolving the complex CES1 genomic locus with Cas9-directed targeted long-read sequencing
2026-08-22
Abstract excerpt
Abstract Carboxylesterase 1 (CES1) is a major hepatic enzyme involved in the metabolism of many ester-containing drugs and endogenous lipids. However, genomic analysis of the CES1 locus is challenging due to highly homologous regions that confound short-read sequencing. To overcome these limitations, we applied an optimized, PCR-free Oxford Nanopore Cas9-directed targeted sequencing (nCATS) approach to enrich and...
