Genomic analysis of HGSOC using long read sequencing

High-grade serous ovarian cancer (HGSOC) is characterized by widespread genomic instability, but genomic and epigenomic alterations within repetitive regions remain poorly understood. This study aims to investigate genomic and epigenomic variations in HGSOC using Oxford Nanopore long-read sequencing technology. High-molecular-weight DNA was extracted from cryopreserved, pre-treatment tumor samples and matched blood specimens. The objectives include developing a robust long-read sequencing analysis pipeline, identifying novel genomic and epigenomic variations, and exploring potential applications in future clinical and basic research.

EGAD50000001509	This dataset comprises whole-genome Oxford Nanopore long-read sequencing data from six high-grade serous ovarian cancer (HGSOC) patients, including cryopreserved, pre-treatment tumor tissues and matched peripheral blood samples (12 samples in total). High-molecular-weight DNA was prepared using the SQK-LSK114 Ligation Sequencing Kit and sequenced on FLO-PRO114M flow cells (R10.4.1). Basecalling was conducted using the super-accurate (SUP) model, enabling simultaneous detection of 5-methylcytosine (5mC) and 5-hydroxymethylcytosine (5hmC). The dataset includes BAM files containing base modification information for downstream genomic and epigenomic analyses.	PromethION	12
