P3: Improving the Draft Assembly of the Horse Genome

Author: Megan Smedinhoff , Advisor: James A. Yorke (MATH)


Problem Statement Presentation

Project Proposal

Abstract

I aim to improve the draft genome of the horse that was produced by Broad Institute in early 2007. My strategy is to begin by producing a second assembly of the horse using the Celera Assembler. After generating a new assembly, I intend to use existing University of Maryland software to reconcile the two assemblies and produce a third that is more accurate than either of the two drafts.
