Description

This track shows 285 sites of intermediate-sized structural variation (ISV) detected by mapping paired end-sequences from a human fosmid DNA library against the July 2003 assembly (build34) of the human genome. The average resolution of this technique is ~8 kb, and includes 56 sites of inversion not detectable by array-based approaches. However, because of the physical constraints of fosmid insert size, this technique is unable to detect insertions greater than 40 kb in size.
