Abstract
Technologies for detecting structural variation (SV) have advanced with the advent of long-read sequencing, which enables the validation of SV at a nucleotide level. Optical genome mapping (OGM), a technology based on physical mapping, can also provide comprehensive SVs analysis. We applied long-read whole genome sequencing (LRWGS) to accurately reconstruct breakpoint (BP) segments in a patient with complex chromosome 6q rearrangements that remained elusive by conventional karyotyping. Although all BPs were precisely identified by LRWGS, there were two possible ways to construct the BP segments in terms of their orders and orientations. Thus, we also used OGM analysis. Notably, OGM recognized entire inversions exceeding 500 kb in size, which LRWGS could not characterize. Consequently, here we successfully unveil the full genomic structure of this complex chromosomal 6q rearrangement and cryptic SVs through combined long-molecule genomic analyses, showcasing how LRWGS and OGM can complement each other in SV analysis.
