TL;DR: A modified version of the Celera assembler is developed to facilitate the identification and comparison of alternate alleles within this individual diploid genome, and a novel haplotype assembly strategy is used, able to span 1.5 Gb of genome sequence in segments >200 kb, providing further precision to the diploids nature of the genome.
Journal ArticleDOI

TL;DR: This study analyzed human sequence generated by the Roche 454, Illumina GA, and the ABI SOLiD technologies for the same 260 kb in four individuals to provide important insights into systematic biases and data variability that need to be considered when utilizing NGS platforms for population targeted sequencing studies.
Journal ArticleDOI
Atrial fibrillation: current knowledge and recommendations for management
Samuel Levy,G. Breithardt,Ronald W.F. Campbell,A.J. Camm,Jean Claude Daubert,M. Allessie,E. Aliot,Alessandro Capucci,F.G. Cosio,H. Crijns,Luc Jordaens,R. N. W. Hauer,F. Lombardi,B. Lüderitz +13 more
TL;DR: The state of knowledge on the clinical presentation, the causes, the mechanisms and therapeutic approaches currently available and to propose recommendations for management of atrial fibrillation are outlined.
Journal ArticleDOI

TL;DR: In this paper, a large number of structural variants have been unreported in the individual genomes published to date, which necessitate they be actively studied in health-related analyses of personal genomes.
Journal ArticleDOI

TL;DR: This study presents the first comprehensive analysis of mobile element-related structural variants in the complete DNA sequence of an individual and demonstrates that mobile elements play an important role in generating inter-individual structural variation.
