Abstract

Human genomes are diploid. To link genetic variation to gene function and phenotype, it is essential to determine the specific distribution of variants between the two homologous chromosomes. Here we present a fosmid pool-based next generation sequencing approach to haplotype-resolve whole genomes and its application to the analysis of multiple individuals. In sum, our work provides novel insights into the true nature of genetic variation and exemplifies that haplotyping human genomes is mandatory to fully understand the biology of genes and genomes, identify disease mechanisms and advance individualized medicine.

Additional information

Margret R. Hoehe, Eun-Kyung Suk und Thomas Huebsch (v. l. n. r.) Im Fokus der Arbeitsgruppe „Diploid Genomics“ unter Leitung von Dr. Margret Hoehe ist die Entwicklung molekulargenetischer und bioin - formatischer Ansätze/Methoden zur Haplotyp - analyse menschlicher Genome, sowie deren Anwendung auf die Datenproduktion und -ana - lyse in großem Maßstab (Molekulargenetik Dr. Eun-Kyung Suk, Bioinformatik Dr. Thomas Hübsch). Mit gegenwärtiger Schwerpunktsetzung auf die Datenanalyse werden Gesetzmäßigkeiten zur Natur genetischer Variabilität und der Architektur diploider Genome, sowie deren Implikationen für Biologie, personalisierte Genomik und Medizin untersucht. Dr. Suk war bis 2012 Mitglied der Arbeitsgruppe.
