Description

This track collection contains structural variant (SV) calls derived from long-read sequencing studies. Structural variants are genomic rearrangements larger than ~50 bp, including deletions, insertions, duplications, inversions, and translocations. Long-read sequencing technologies can span repetitive regions and resolve complex rearrangements that are difficult to detect with short-read methods.

Available Datasets

SV length statistics (min / median / max) are computed from the svLen field of each track, in base pairs. Some tracks include sites with svLen=0 (complex events where the reference and alternate alleles differ in sequence but not in length).

Han 945 SVs (han945Sv)

Structural variants from 945 Han Chinese individuals. 111,288 SVs (deletions, insertions, duplications, inversions, translocations) merged with SURVIVOR. Includes allele frequencies and per-sample support.

1KG ONT SVs (lrSv1kgOnt)

Structural variants from 1,019 individuals across 26 populations (1000 Genomes ONT). 161,332 SVs annotated with SVAN, classifying insertions and deletions by mechanism of origin (mobile elements, VNTRs, processed pseudogenes, etc.). Original coordinates are on T2T-CHM13 (hs1); the hg38 version was created via liftOver.

ToMMo Japanese SVs (tommoJpSv)

Structural variants from 333 Japanese individuals (111 trios) from the Tohoku Medical Megabank (ToMMo). 74,201 SVs (deletions and insertions) with trio-based Mendelian error rates and allele frequencies.

AoU 1K SVs (aou1kSv)

Structural variants from 1,027 individuals from the All of Us (AoU) Research Program, sequenced with PacBio HiFi long reads. 541,049 SVs (insertions and deletions) with population-specific allele frequencies, gene annotations, and clinical trait associations.

GA4K SVs (ga4kSv)

Structural variants from 502 probands and family members enrolled in the Genomic Answers for Kids (GA4K) pediatric rare-disease program at Children's Mercy Research Institute, sequenced with PacBio HiFi long reads. 115,554 replicated SVs (deletions, insertions, duplications, inversions) called with pbsv and merged with JASMINE. The matched GA4K small-variant callset (SNVs and short indels) lives alongside other population allele-frequency resources as GA4K 552 PacBio LR in the Variant Frequencies track collection.

deCODE 3,622 SVs (decodeSv)

High-confidence structural variants from 3,622 Icelanders (deCODE genetics), sequenced with Oxford Nanopore long reads. 133,886 SVs (deletions, insertions and combined insertion/deletion events). Site-only callset with annotated surrounding tandem-repeat regions.

HGSVC3 65 SVs (hgsvc3Sv)

Structural variants from 65 diverse individuals sequenced and de novo assembled by the Human Genome Structural Variation Consortium phase 3 (HGSVC3). 176,532 haplotype-resolved SVs (deletions, insertions and inversions) called with PAV and cross-validated with ten additional callers, with per-site carrier haplotype lists and structural annotations.

Kim PD Brain SVs (kwanhoSv)

Structural variants from 100 post-mortem brain samples (Parkinson's disease, incidental Lewy body disease, and healthy controls) sequenced with PacBio HiFi long reads. 74,552 high-confidence SVs (deletions, insertions, duplications, inversions) with per-cohort allele frequencies and case-control carrier-rate differentials, from Kim et al. 2026.

SVatalog 101 SVs (chirmade101Sv)

Structural variants from 101 long-read whole-genome sequences released alongside the GWAS SVatalog tool (Chirmade et al. 2026). 87,183 SVs (deletions, insertions, duplications, inversions and complex events) annotated with gene overlaps, ClinGen / gnomAD constraint scores, OMIM / ClinVar / DGV / Decipher regional annotations.
