What is a linked-read?

Linked-read is a term for any genomic sequencing output that has additional oligo information. Dovetail Genomics’ linked-read assays are similar to Hi-C—connecting positional DNA-DNA relationships to sequencing data through proximity ligation oligo sequences to provide spatial information about the DNA in the nucleus.

Why Dovetail linked-read?

Our linked-read libraries types overcome the linear limitations of other short-read approaches to enable capture of long-range chromatin information with short range oligo sequences. The flexibility of short range sequences with long range information enables high resolution genomes with haplotype resolution, detection of de novo somatic variants (SNV, InDel, CNV) and unbiased resolution of 3D genomic interactions—without sacrificing sequencing depth or data quality.
