This study reports HLA allele and haplotype frequencies across 14 Russian ethnic groups using whole genome sequencing data, highlighting differences in risk alleles for type 1 diabetes and improving HLA frequency coverage in eastern Europe and northern Asia.

The paper identifies novel non-reference processed pseudogenes by analyzing insertion artifacts in gnomAD data, improving variant interpretation.

The paper describes a method for culturing human retinal explants to study gene therapy effectiveness using viral vectors and various assays.

This study evaluates concordance between whole genome sequencing variants and Sanger validation to establish thresholds for high-quality variant filtering.

The paper introduces a tool to concatenate segmented viral genomes for reassortment analysis, enabling the use of recombination detection methods on concatenated sequences.
