The application discloses a method for identifying
large fragment sequence
insertion of a target genomic region and application thereof, and belongs to the technical field of
bioinformatics. In view of the problem that
large fragment insertion variation is difficult to be accurately recognized in clinical metagenomic sequencing due to short sequencing read length, insufficient coverage and other factors, the application proposes to construct a reference sequence which can represent the
insertion variation by means of manual construction, and to realize efficient identification of the insertion event of the target genomic region by combining a
short read-based fast alignment process. The method overcomes the dependence of existing
structural variation detection tools on high sequencing depth and long read length, has the advantages of fast identification speed, high sensitivity and high accuracy, and is suitable for rapid screening of
large fragment insertion related to
drug resistance mechanism in clinical samples. Meanwhile, the method can be popularized for insertion variation analysis of other
pathogen drug resistance related genes or genomic regions, and has a good clinical application prospect.
