Sequence Assembly Release Notes - Homo sapiens NA19240
 Background:
 The NA19240 DNA for shotgun sequencing is derived from the blood, b-lymphocytes cells, of an adult female from the Coriell Institute for Medical Research. The NA19240 genome is diploid and ... from a Yoruban family trio Y117. Sequence from this project will be used to improve the contiguity of the human reference sequence and add diverse allelic variation.
 Total sequence genome input coverage on the PacBio RS II instrument was 30x after error correction (74x prior to error correction) using a genome size estimate of 3Gb. The combined sequence reads were assembled using the Falcon software, and then error corrected with the Quiver algorithm. This NA19240 1.0 version has been cleaned of contaminating contigs, and contigs 200bp and less were removed. The assembly is made up of a total of 3600 contigs, with an N50 contig length of 5.83Mb. The assembly spans 2.74Gb.
