Post hoc deconvolution of human mitochondrial DNA mixtures by EMMA 2 using fine-tuned Phylotree nomenclature
COMPUTATIONAL AND STRUCTURAL BIOTECHNOLOGY JOURNAL(2022)
Abstract
In this paper we present a new algorithm for splitting (partial) human mitogenomes into components with high similarity to haplogroup motifs of Phylotree. The algorithm reads a (partial) mitogenome coded by the differences to the reference (rCRS) and outputs the estimated haplogroups of the putative compo-nents. The algorithm requires no special information on the raw data of the sequencing process and is therefore suited for the post hoc analysis of mixtures of any sequencing technology. The software EMMA 2 implementing the algorithm will be made available via the EMPOP (https://empop.online) data-base and extends the nine years old software EMMA for haplogrouping single mitogenomes to mixtures with at most three components.(c) 2022 The Authors.
