Accurate long read mapping using enhanced suffix arrays

Boekbijdrage - Boekhoofdstuk Conferentiebijdrage

With the rise of high throughput sequencing, new programs have been developed for dealing with the alignment of a huge amount of short read data to reference genomes. Recent developments in sequencing technology allow longer reads, but the mappers for short reads are not suited for reads of several hundreds of base pairs. We propose an algorithm for mapping longer reads, which is based on chaining maximal exact matches and uses heuristics and the Needleman-Wunsch algorithm to bridge the gaps. To compute maximal exact matches we use a specialized index structure, called enhanced suffix array. The proposed algorithm is very accurate and can handle large reads with mutations and long insertions and deletions.
