Empowering Precision Medicine: Can Long-Read Sequencing Deliver Enhanced Genetic Insights?
A typical single read using current short-read sequencing technology spans approximately 150 nucleotides. Alignment of these reads becomes difficult when a sequence lacks specificity, such as when it contains repetitive motifs. Consequently, such reads often receive lower mapping quality scores since they can potentially align to multiple regions within a genome. For example, the read […]
