A Diploid Assembly-based Benchmark for Variants in the Major Histocompatibility Complex
2019-11-05
Abstract excerpt
We develop the first human benchmark derived from a diploid assembly for the openly-consented Genome in a Bottle/Personal Genome Project Ashkenazi son (HG002). As a proof-of-principle, we focus on a medically important, highly variable, 5 million base-pair region - the Major Histocompatibility Complex (MHC). Most human genomes are characterized by aligning individual reads to the reference genome, but accurate lon...
