New paper involving assembly of PacBio reads from a tricky part of the dog genome, published in Immunogenetics

Bioinformatics data analyst Joe Fass was involved in work that was published recently in Immunogenetics:

• Refinement of the canine CD1 locus topology and investigation of antibody binding to recombinant canine CD1 isoforms

The Bioinformatics Core’s role was to assembly bacterial artifitial chromosomes (BACs) tiling across a region of the canFam3 genome assembly. The assembled BACs revealed missing sequence at several points within the CD1 locus.
