Resolving challenging medically relevant genes in the human genome with native Oxford Nanopore reads
- shared.published_on: May 19 2026
Oxford Nanopore reads of unrestricted length allow copy number variation calling for genes with highly similar paralogs, along with tandem repeat expansion characterisation and motif identification.
