BGI Long-read Whole Genome Sequencing Services are performed with PacBio and Oxford Nanopore platforms, long read sequencing approaches provide the opportunity to more accurately and reliably detect SVs at a much higher resolution. Contact us today with any questions or for a no obligation quote.
Structural variants (SVs), including deletions, insertions, duplications, and inversions, account for most base pairs variations in an individual human genome.
Long-read sequencing can precisely position in SV, as well as solving complex SV structures. Long-read sequencing can effectively solve some of the insurmountable problems in short-read sequencing, and greatly improve the detection rate of large structural variation sites by constructing ultra-long fragment libraries.
The advent of new Long-read sequencing technology has led to a revolution in genome sequencing, where long reads up to 100 Kb can be sequenced in a single run without PCR amplification. Long-read sequencing approaches provide the opportunity to more accurately and reliably detect SVs at a much higher resolution.
