    Bifrost: highly parallel construction and indexing of colored and compacted de Bruijn graphs 
    Holley, Guillaume; Melsted, Páll (Springer Science and Business Media LLC, 2020-09-17)
    Memory consumption of de Bruijn graphs is often prohibitive. Most de Bruijn graph-based assemblers reduce the complexity by compacting paths into single vertices, but this is challenging as it requires the uncompacted de Bruijn graph to be available ...

    Genome-wide association identifies seven loci for pelvic organ prolapse in Iceland and the UK Biobank 
    Ólafsdóttir, Thorhildur; Thorleifsson, Gudmar; sulem, patrick; Stefánsson, Ólafur A.; Medek, Helga; Olafsson, Karl; Ingþórsson, Orri; Guðmundsson, Valur; Jonsdottir, Ingileif; Halldorsson, Gisli; Kristjansson, Ragnar; Frigge, Michael L.; Stefánsdóttir, Lilja; Sigurðsson, Jón K.; Oddsson, Asmundur; Sigurðsson, Ásgeir; Eggertsson, Hannes P.; Melsted, Páll; Halldórsson, Bjarni; Lund, Sigrún Helga; Styrkarsdottir, Unnur; Steinthorsdottir, Valgerdur; Gudmundsson, Julius; Holm, Hilma; Tragante do O, Vinicius; Asselbergs, Folkert; Thorsteinsdottir, Unnur; Gudbjartsson, Daniel; Jónsdóttir, Kristín; Rafnar, Thorunn; Stefansson, Kari (Springer Science and Business Media LLC, 2020-03-17)
    Pelvic organ prolapse (POP) is a downward descent of one or more of the pelvic organs, resulting in a protrusion of the vaginal wall and/or uterus. We performed a genome-wide association study of POP using data from Iceland and the UK Biobank, a total ...

    GraphTyper2 enables population-scale genotyping of structural variation using pangenome graphs 
    Eggertsson, Hannes; Kristmundsdóttir, Snædís; Beyter, Doruk; Jónsson, Hákon; Skúladóttir, Ástrós; Hardarson, Marteinn; Gudbjartsson, Daniel; Stefansson, Kari; Halldórsson, Bjarni; Melsted, Páll (Springer Science and Business Media LLC, 2019-11-27)
    Analysis of sequence diversity in the human genome is fundamental for genetic studies. Structural variants (SVs) are frequently omitted in sequence analysis studies, although each has a relatively large impact on the genome. Here, we present GraphTyper2, ...

    The Lair: a resource for exploratory analysis of published RNA-Seq data 
    Pimentel, Harold; Sturmfels, Pascal; Bray, Nicolas; Melsted, Páll; Pachter, Lior (Springer Nature, 2016-12)
    Increased emphasis on reproducibility of published research in the last few years has led to the large-scale archiving of sequencing data. While this data can, in theory, be used to reproduce results in papers, it is difficult to use in practice. We ...

    A PRPH splice-donor variant associates with reduced sural nerve amplitude and risk of peripheral neuropathy 
    Bjornsdottir, Gyda; Ívarsdóttir, Erna V.; Bjarnadóttir, Kristbjörg; Benonisdottir, Stefania; Gylfadottir, Sandra Sif; Arnadottir, Gudny; Benediktsson, Rafn; Halldorsson, Gisli; Helgadottir, Anna; Jónasdóttir, Aðalbjörg; Jónasdóttir, Áslaug; Jonsdottir, Ingileif; Kristinsdóttir, Anna Margrét; Magnússon, Ólafur T.; Másson, Gísli; Melsted, Páll; Rafnar, Thorunn; Sigurðsson, Ásgeir; Sigurdsson, Gunnar; Skúladóttir, Ástrós; Steinthorsdottir, Valgerdur; Styrkarsdottir, Unnur; Thorgeirsson, Gudmundur; Thorleifsson, Gudmar; Vikingsson, Arnor; Gudbjartsson, Daniel; Holm, Hilma; Stefansson, Hreinn; Thorsteinsdottir, Unnur; Norðdahl, Guðmundur L.; sulem, patrick; Thorgeirsson, Thorgeir; Stefansson, Kari (Springer Science and Business Media LLC, 2019-04-16)
    Nerve conduction (NC) studies generate measures of peripheral nerve function that can reveal underlying pathology due to axonal loss, demyelination or both. We perform a genome-wide association study of sural NC amplitude and velocity in 7045 Icelanders ...
