Long-read genomic data

Overview

Genomics England, in partnership with the Sanger Institute and Pacific Biosciences amongst others, has been assessing the advantages of long-reads sequencing technologies over Illumina short-reads whole genome sequencing. To this end, we have employed both Oxford Nanopore Technologies and Pacific Biosciences methodologies.

Upon availability of the data and/or expiration of potential embargoes we aim to provide researchers access to this data.

A separate section has been made available in LabKey as of 100kGP Data Release v17 containing various tables related to long read sequencing data.
