Paired tumour-normal whole-genome sequencing enables a deeper understanding of genomic and epigenomic variability in cancer, which can prompt the discovery of new cancer biomarkers and new insights into the genetics of treatment-resistant tumours. With nanopore sequencing, long, native DNA reads enable the capture of single nucleotide variants (SNVs), structural variants (SVs), copy number variants (CNVs), short tandem repeats (STRs), and epigenetic modifications, including 5mC and 5hmC, in a single dataset.
This end-to-end workflow provides a simple solution for detecting a wide range of tumour-specific variations in a single sequencing assay.
