* Survey and Classification of Human Genome Reference (Analysis) Models
Mon 22 of Feb, 2021 18:02 EST -We have just concluded an 8 month exhaustive survey of available Human Genome Reference Models in FASTA format. The result was a little surprising in some instances but mostly followed well-repeated conventions from the industry. Out of this study, we have developed a new classification system for the models that can be better used to match an already aligned BAM file to its likely reference model used to build it. This is important for follow-on processing to extract variants into VCF files or possibly compress with the CRAM format.
