Since its initial release in 2000, the human reference genome has covered only euchromatic fraction of genome, leaving important heterochromatic regions unfinished. Addressing remaining 8% Telomere-to-Telomere (T2T) Consortium presents a complete 3.055 billion–base pair sequence T2T-CHM13, that includes gapless assemblies for all chromosomes except Y, corrects errors prior references, and introduces nearly 200 million base pairs containing 1956 gene predictions, 99 which are predicted to be protein coding. The completed include centromeric satellite arrays, recent segmental duplications, short arms five acrocentric chromosomes, unlocking these complex variational functional studies.

A draft human pangenome reference

Nature, Год журнала: 2023, Номер 617(7960), С. 312 - 324

Опубликована: Май 10, 2023

Abstract Here the Human Pangenome Reference Consortium presents a first draft of human pangenome reference. The contains 47 phased, diploid assemblies from cohort genetically diverse individuals 1 . These cover more than 99% expected sequence in each genome and are accurate at structural base pair levels. Based on alignments assemblies, we generate that captures known variants haplotypes reveals new alleles structurally complex loci. We also add 119 million pairs euchromatic polymorphic sequences 1,115 gene duplications relative to existing reference GRCh38. Roughly 90 additional derived variation. Using our analyse short-read data reduced small variant discovery errors by 34% increased number detected per haplotype 104% compared with GRCh38-based workflows, which enabled typing vast majority sample.

The genetic and epigenetic landscape of the Arabidopsis centromeres

Science, Год журнала: 2021, Номер 374(6569)

Опубликована: Ноя. 11, 2021

A closer look at centromeres Centromeres are key for anchoring chromosomes to the mitotic spindle, but they have been difficult sequence because can contain many repeating DNA elements. These repeats, however, carry regularly spaced, distinctive markers of heterogeneity between mostly, not completely, identical repeats. Such differences aid assembly. Naish et al . used ultra-long-read sequencing establish a reference assembly that resolves all five in small mustard plant Arabidopsis Their view into subtly homogenized world reveals retrotransposons interrupt centromere organization and repressive methylation excludes from meiotic crossover repair. Thus, evolve under opposing forces homogenization retrotransposon disruption. —PJH

A complete reference genome improves analysis of human genetic variation

Science, Год журнала: 2022, Номер 376(6588)

Опубликована: Март 31, 2022

Compared to its predecessors, the Telomere-to-Telomere CHM13 genome adds nearly 200 million base pairs of sequence, corrects thousands structural errors, and unlocks most complex regions human for clinical functional study. We show how this reference universally improves read mapping variant calling 3202 17 globally diverse samples sequenced with short long reads, respectively. identify hundreds variants per sample in previously unresolved regions, showcasing promise T2T-CHM13 evolutionary biomedical discovery. Simultaneously, eliminates tens spurious sample, including reduction false positives 269 medically relevant genes by up a factor 12. Because these improvements discovery coupled population genomic resources, is positioned replace GRCh38 as prevailing genetics.

From telomere to telomere: The transcriptional and epigenetic state of human repeat elements

Science, Год журнала: 2022, Номер 376(6588)

Опубликована: Март 31, 2022

Mobile elements and repetitive genomic regions are sources of lineage-specific innovation uniquely fingerprint individual genomes. Comprehensive analyses such repeat elements, including those found in more complex the genome, require a complete, linear genome assembly. We present de novo discovery annotation T2T-CHM13 human reference genome. identified previously unknown satellite arrays, expanded catalog variants families for repeats mobile characterized classes composite repeats, located retroelement transduction events. detected nascent transcription delineated CpG methylation profiles to define structure transcriptionally active retroelements humans, centromeres. These data expand our insight into diversity, distribution, evolution that have shaped

Epigenetic patterns in a complete human genome

Science, Год журнала: 2022, Номер 376(6588)

Опубликована: Март 31, 2022

The completion of a telomere-to-telomere human reference genome, T2T-CHM13, has resolved complex regions the including repetitive and homologous regions. Here, we present high-resolution epigenetic study previously unresolved sequences, representing entire acrocentric chromosome short arms, gene family expansions, diverse collection repeat classes. This resource precisely maps CpG methylation (32.28 million CpGs), DNA accessibility, short-read datasets (166,058 chromatin immunoprecipitation sequencing peaks) to provide evidence activity across unidentified or corrected genes reveals clinically relevant paralog-specific regulation. Probing centromeres from six individuals generated an estimate variability in kinetochore localization. analysis provides framework with which investigate most elusive granting insights into

Abstract Long read sequencing data, particularly those derived from the Oxford Nanopore (ONT) platform, tend to exhibit a high error rate. Here, we present NextDenovo, highly efficient correction and assembly tool for noisy long reads, which achieves level of accuracy in genome assembly. NextDenovo can rapidly correct reads; these corrected reads contain fewer errors than other comparable tools are characterized by chimeric alignments. We applied quality reference genomes 35 diverse humans across world using ONT data. Based on de novo assemblies, were able identify landscape segmental duplications gene copy number variation modern human population. The use program should pave way population-scale long-read assembly, thereby facilitating construction pan-genomes,
