  • Publication number: 20190080045
    Abstract: A method of determining the presence of a novel structural variation in a genome using long-read genome sequence fragments includes a process of aligning, filtering ranking and linking long-read sequence fragments against a reference genome. Presence of a novel structural variation is present in said genome can be determined when said linked alignment contains multiple linked fragments that are mapped to a single locus, referred to as a split-read.
