The structure, function and evolution of a complete human chromosome 8

The complete assembly of each human chromosome is essential for understanding human biology and evolution 1 , 2 . Here we use complementary long-read sequencing technologies to complete the linear assembly of human chromosome 8. Our assembly resolves the sequence of five previously long-standing gap...
