Somatic mosaicism is increasingly recognized as a fundamental feature of human biology, yet the detection of somatic mutations remains challenging. The Somatic Mosaicism across Human Tissues (SMaHT) Network conducted large-scale benchmarking experiments involving cell lines and donor tissues to evaluate sequencing tech...

Cancer genomes harbor extensive somatic genetic and epigenetic variation, yet large portions of the genome remain inaccessible to conventional reference-based analyses. Here, we demonstrate that pairing a near-telomere-to-telomere (near-T2T) diploid assembly of a donor with deep short- and long-read sequencing of their...

Approximately 8% of the human genome is derived from ancient retroviral infections. The most recently integrated of these endogenous retroviruses is the HERV-K(HML-2) clade, whose expression has been associated with cancer, amyotrophic lateral sclerosis, and embryogenesis. Studies of HERV expression, particularly HML-2...

The Human Pangenome Reference Consortium’s (HPRC) Release 2 (HPRC2) is presented, an openly available, second phase pangenome that is an approximately fivefold expansion in genome number over HPRC Release 1 (HPRC1) and measurable improvement in genome completeness, contiguity, and accuracy.
