Characterization of Structural Variation in Tibetans Reveals New Evidence of High-altitude Adaptation and Introgression

2020-12-02

Abstract excerpt

Structural variation (SV) acts as an essential mutational force shaping the evolution and function of the human genome. To investigate the role of SVs in high-altitude adaptation (HAA), we here generated a comprehensive catalog of SVs in a Chinese Tibetan (n = 15) and Han (n = 10) population using the nanopore sequencing technology. Among a total of 38,216 unique SVs in the catalog, 27% were sequence-resolved for...
