DNAscent v2: detecting replication forks in nanopore sequencing data with deep learning.

Michael A Boemo
Published in: BMC genomics (2021)
This paper shows that DNAscent v2 is the new state-of-the-art in the high-throughput, single-molecule detection of replication fork dynamics. These improvements in DNAscent v2 mark an important step towards measuring DNA replication dynamics in large genomes with single-molecule resolution. Looking forward, the increase in accuracy in single-nucleotide resolution BrdU calls will also allow DNAscent v2 to branch out into other areas of genome stability research, particularly the detection of DNA repair.
