High level of complexity and global diversity of the 3q29 locus revealed by optical mapping and long-read sequencing

Abstract Background High sequence identity between segmental duplications (SDs) can facilitate copy number variants (CNVs) via non-allelic homologous recombination (NAHR). These CNVs are one of the fundamental causes of genomic disorders such as the 3q29 deletion syndrome (del3q29S). There are 21 pr...
