Two papers in today's issue of @nature.com ‬: 1) we assemble 65 genomes to near completion, including centromeres and the MHC. tinyurl.com/3huhax6w. 2) we sequence 1,019 genomes from the 1kGP with long reads, revealing SVs down to low allele frequencies tinyurl.com/wbx3we9x.

Using sequencing and haplotype-resolved assembly of 65 diverse human genomes, complex regions including the major histocompatibility complex and centromeres are analysed.

Wow, more than 2.4M of assembled bacteria in the new release of ABT! We plan to index these using our efficient colored De Bruijn graph index, Fulgor. We recently conducted experiments with nearly 1M genomes…getting there :)

AllTheBacteria - all bacterial genomes assembled, available and searchable
The bacterial sequence data publicly available via the global DNA archives is a vast potential source of information on the evolution of bacteria. However, most of this sequence data is unassembled, o...

Another taste of the future of human genetics, also in @nature.com. Long-read sequencing in >1,000 humans across 26 populations shows how the approach can accelerate biological & medical research. Work led by @bernardo-rodriguez.bsky.social @trausch.bsky.social @tobiasmar.bsky.social & Jan Korbel.🧬🧪
Structural variation in 1,019 diverse humans based on long-read sequencing - Nature
Intermediate-coverage long-read sequencing in 1,019 diverse humans from the 1000 Genomes Project, representing 26 populations, enables the generation of comprehensive population-scale structural varia...

Telomere-to-telomere DNA sequencing is set to transform the field of human genetics in coming years. For a flavour of what's coming, see this exciting work on nearly complete genomes of 65 individuals from diverse populations, out today in @nature.com by @glennislogsdon.bsky.social & colleagues. 👇🧬🧪

[1/8] *New Open-Access Long Read Resource*. We sequenced 1,019 genomes from the 1000 Genomes Project sample cohort using @nanoporetech.com long-read sequencing (LRS) to median 17x coverage. Publication at go.nature.com/4ffPb8f.

Lovely write up on our paper from @jacksonlab.bsky.social. It's been <4 years since I joined the HGSVC, and together with Peter Audano and Parithi Balachandran in my lab, @tobiasmar.bsky.social, @glennislogsdon.bsky.social, and many others, we've done a lot. Here's to great collaborators!

New research, published today in @natureportfolio.nature.com, decodes the most elusive, difficult-to-sequence regions of the genome from populations around the world, rewriting knowledge of human biology and setting a new benchmark for precision medicine. 🧪🧬🔬
The most complete view of the human genome yet sets new standard for use in precision medicine
What if scientists unlocked the most hidden, hardest-to-read regions of our DNA?
