The human genome differs from person to person. In the DNA sequence, for example, individual \"letters\", so-called nucleotides, are altered. Even greater differences result from structural variants that arise when large DNA segments are inserted, deleted or moved. As part of a global team of researchers, bioinformaticians at Saarland University have studied these differences in more detail and comprehensively characterized the structural variants in three families. The scientists have thus created a basis for systematically exploring the consequences of these genetic variants. The results have been published in Nature Communications.<\/p> <\/div>\n
