Ep100: Christian Henry on Long Read DNA Sequencing
The Long Run with Luke Timmerman
Long Reeds - The New Reference
Long reeds enable you to capture these long repeat regions, or structural variations, or copy number variations that just have traditionally been lost. For the first time in history, we have an entire tilemir o tilemir so it's always been really difficult ah to sequence through the repeat regions. And now, using the pacbio hyphi chemistry coupled with short reads and a the combination have allowed researchers to finally complete the human genu. But it's really just the beginning of the power of long reed technology. Because as more users use long reeds, more applications are uncovered,. More, more biology is discovered with respect to the implication of structural variations.
