SARS-CoV-2 sequences
Why is raw SARS-CoV-2 sequence data important?
- Allows reuse of data and reproducibility of analysis
- Enables discovery of minor allelic variants and intrahost variation
Minor allelic-variants can be used to detect intrahost variation. From Maier et al., 2021 doi.org/10.1101/2021.03.25.437046
What you need
Data:
- compressed fastq format (.fastq.gz, .fastq.bz2)
