  • Publication number: 20210371904
    Abstract: The disclosure provides methods to isolate genome or chromosome level structural information from preserved samples. In some cases, samples preserved under conditions where long-range nucleic acid information is believed to be irreparably lost, such as FFPE samples, are treated to recover nucleic acid-protein complexes stabilized as part of the sample preservation process. The complexes are processed so as to recover information regarding which nucleic acids are bound to a common complex, and the information is used to recover genomic structural information.
    Type: Application
