Telomere-to-telomere assembly of a complete human X chromosome

TL;DR: High-coverage, ultra-long-read nanopore sequencing is used to create a new human genome assembly that improves on the coverage and accuracy of the current reference (GRCh38) and includes the gap-free, telomere-to-telomere sequence of the X chromosome.

Telomere-to-telomere assembly of a complete human X chromosome

TL;DR: A de novo human genome assembly that surpasses the continuity of GRCh38 2, along with the first gapless, telomere-to-telomere assembly of a human chromosome is presented, demonstrating that finishing the human genome is now within reach and will enable ongoing efforts to complete the remaining human chromosomes.
