De novo assembled individual genome does not show advantage against standard reference genome: a demonstration of Chinese Han Population
Ontology highlight
ABSTRACT: We compared standard human reference genome GRCh38 and de novo assembled reference genome HX1 in precision medicine applications for specific ethnics. In order to quantify the HX1 misassembled genes and HX1-specific contigs, we performed RNA-seq and RNC-seq on hepatocellular carcinoma cell lines (MHCC97H, MHCCLM3 and MHCCLM6) which were derived from Chinese Han individuals. In which, RNC-seq datasets of MHCC97H and MHCCLM3 had been published. We found that a considerable fraction of HX1 misassembled genes was expressed in the Chinese Han samples. Furthermore, we found no HX1-specific contigs yielded more than 2.27 FPKM (minimun FPKM of 1 copy/cell transcript) in the Chinese Han sampels.
