Hostile: accurate host decontamination of microbial sequences

2023-07-05

Abstract excerpt

<h4>Motivation</h4> Microbial sequences generated from clinical samples are often contaminated with human host sequences that must be removed for ethical and legal reasons. Care must be taken to excise host sequences without inadvertently removing target microbial sequences to the detriment of downstream analyses such as variant calling and de novo assembly. <h4>Results</h4> To facilitate accurate host deconta...
