Graph-based representation of the genome sequence data
Modern sequencing technology produces genome sequence data on a gigantic scale reaching into exabytes. The emerging urgent question is how these volumes of data could be arranged and analysed in a computationally efficient and biomedically meaningful manner. This EU-funded project is going to explore graph-based representation of large genome datasets and determine their advantages over traditional sequence-based presentation of pan-genomic data. Genomes that are evolutionarily close vary only a little and graph-based pan-genomic representation allows to remove redundancies while highlighting important differences....
