Cas9 targeted enrichment of mobile elements using nanopore sequencing

Mobile element insertions (MEIs) are a source of repetitive genetic variation and can lead to genetic disorders. Here the authors use Cas9-targeted nanopore sequencing to efficiently saturate enrichment for known and non-reference MEIs.
