    • ALLPATHS 2: Small Genomes Assembled Accurately and with High Continuity from Short Paired Reads 

      MacCallum, Iain; Przybylski, Dariusz; Gnerre, Sante; Burton, Joshua; Gnirke, Andreas; Malek, Joel; McKernan, Kevin; Ranade, Swati; Shea, Terrance P; Williams, Louise; Nusbaum, Chad; Jaffe, David B; Shlyakhter, Ilya; Young, Sarah (BioMed Central, 2009)
      We demonstrate that genome sequences approaching finished quality can be generated from short paired reads. Using 36 base (fragment) and 26 base (jumping) reads from five microbial genomes of varied GC composition and sizes ...

    • Identification and Functional Validation of the Novel Antimalarial Resistance Locus PF10_0355 in Plasmodium falciparum 

      Van Tyne, Daria Natalie; Park, Daniel John; Schaffner, Stephen; Neafsey, Daniel Edward; Angelino, Elaine Lee; Cortese, Joseph F.; Barnes, Kayla G.; Rosen, David M.; Lukens, Amanda Kathleen; Daniels, Rachel Fath; Milner, Danny Arnold; Johnson, Charles A.; Shlyakhter, Ilya; Grossman, Sharon Rachel; Becker, Justin S.; Yamins, Daniel Louis Kanef; Karlsson, Elinor Kathryn; Ndiaye, Daouda; Sarr, Ousmane; Mboup, Souleymane; Happi, Christian Tientcha; Furlotte, Nicholas A.; Eskin, Eleazar; Kang, Hyun Min; Hartl, Daniel L.; Birren, Bruce W.; Wiegand, Roger C.; Lander, Eric Steven; Wirth, Dyann Fergus; Cooke, Sarah Volkman; Sabeti, Pardis Christine (Public Library of Science, 2011)
      The Plasmodium falciparum parasite's ability to adapt to environmental pressures, such as the human immune system and antimalarial drugs, makes malaria an enduring burden to public health. Understanding the genetic basis ...

    • Identifying Recent Adaptations in Large-Scale Genomic Data 

      Grossman, Shamai Aaron; Andersen, Kristian G; Shlyakhter, Ilya; Tabrizi, Shervin; Winnicki, Sarah M.; Yen, Angela; Park, Daniel J.; Griesemer, Dustin Shahab; Karlsson, Elinor Kathryn; Wong, Sunny H.; Cabili, Moran; Adegbola, Richard A.; Bamezai, Rameshwar N.K.; Hill, Adrian V.S.; Vannberg, Fredrik O.; Rinn, John L; Lander, Eric Steven; Schaffner, Stephen; Sabeti, Pardis Christine (Elsevier BV, 2013)
      Summary: Although several hundred regions of the human genome harbor signals of positive natural selection, few of the relevant adaptive traits and variants have been elucidated. Using full-genome sequence variation from ...

    • A Map of Human Genome Variation from Population Scale Sequencing 

      Altshuler, David Matthew; Lander, Eric Steven; Ambrogio, Lauren; Bloom, Toby; Cibulskis, Kristian; Fennell, Tim J.; Gabriel, Stacey B.; Jaffe, David B.; Shefler, Erica; Sougnez, Carrie L.; Lee, Charles; Mills, Ryan Edward; Shi, Xinghua; Daly, Mark Joseph; DePristo, Mark A.; Ball, Aaron D.; Banks, Eric; Browning, Brian L.; Garimella, Kiran V.; Grossman, Sharon Rachel; Handsaker, Robert E; Hanna, Matt; Hartl, Chris; Kernytsky, Andrew M.; Korn, Joshua M.; Li, Heng; Maguire, Jared R.; McCarroll, Steven A.; Nemesh, James C.; McKenna, Aaron; Philippakis, Anthony Andrew; Poplin, Ryan E.; Price, Alkes; Rivas, Manuel A.; Sabeti, Pardis Christine; Schaffner, Stephen; Shlyakhter, Ilya (Nature Publishing Group, 2010)
      The 1000 Genomes Project aims to provide a deep characterization of human genome sequence variation as a foundation for investigating the relationship between genotype and phenotype. Here we present results of the pilot ...

      Mills, Ryan Edward; Handsaker, Robert E; Korn, Joshua; Nemesh, James; Shi, Xinghua; Lee, Charles; McCarroll, Steven A.; Altshuler, David Matthew; Gabriel, Stacey B.; Lander, Eric Steven; Ambrogio, Lauren; Bloom, Toby; Cibulskis, Kristian; Fennell, Tim J.; Jaffe, David B.; Shefler, Erica; Sougnez, Carrie L.; Daly, Mark Joseph; DePristo, Mark A.; Ball, Aaron D.; Banks, Eric; Bloom, Toby; Browning, Brian L.; Garimella, Kiran V.; Grossman, Sharon Rachel; Handsaker, Robert E; Hanna, Matt; Hartl, Chris; Kernytsky, Andrew M.; Li, Heng; Maguire, Jared R.; McKenna, Aaron; Philippakis, Anthony Andrew; Poplin, Ryan E.; Price, Alkes; Rivas, Manuel A.; Sabeti, Pardis Christine; Schaffner, Stephen; Shlyakhter, Ilya; DePristo, Mark A.; Wilkinson, Jane (Nature Publishing Group, 2011)
      Genomic structural variants (SVs) are abundant in humans, differing from other forms of variation in extent, origin and functional impact. Despite progress in SV characterization, the nucleotide resolution architecture of ...

    • Natural Selection in a Bangladeshi Population from the Cholera-Endemic Ganges River Delta 

      Karlsson, Elinor Kathryn; Harris, J. B.; Tabrizi, Shervin; Rahman, A.; Shlyakhter, Ilya; Patterson, N.; O, C.; Schaffner, Stephen; Gupta, S.; Chowdhury, F.; Sheikh, A.; Shin, O.

M.; Calderwood, Stephen Beaven; Ryan, Edward Thomas; Qadri, F.; Sabeti, Pardis Christine; Larocque, Regina Celes (American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS), 2013)
      As an ancient disease with high fatality, cholera has likely exerted strong selective pressure on affected human populations. We performed a genome-wide study of natural selection in a population from the Ganges River ...
