Caenorhabditis elegans (C. elegans) is used as a medical and systems toxicity model organism for environmental and developmental assays that include high-throughput methods and genetic studies. However, little is known about background levels of

Genome-wide reconstruction of complex structural variants using read clouds

Recently developed methods that utilize partitioning of long genomic DNA fragments, and barcoding of shorter fragments derived from them, have succeeded in retaining long-range information in short sequencing reads. These so-called read cloud approaches

Extensive sequencing of seven human genomes to characterize benchmark reference materials

Justin M. Zook, Jennifer H. McDaniel, David N. Catoe, Lindsay Harris, Marc L. Salit
The Genome in a Bottle Consortium hosted by the National Institute of Standards and Technology, (NIST), is creating reference materials and data for human genome sequencing, as well as methods for genome comparison and benchmarking. Here, we describe a

DNA Extraction and DNA Damage Measurement in the Nematode Caenorhabditis elegans

Little is known about endogenous DNA damage in the nematode. In this work, we standardized the growth of the nematode in two different growth media (axenic CeHR supplemented with 20% milk and S-basal with E. coli), and developed a novel high-salt, phenol
