Abstract:Despite substantial advances in disease genetics, studies to date have largely focused on individuals of European descent, limiting further discoveries of novel functional genetic variants in other ethnic groups. To alleviate the paucity of East Asian population genome resource, we established Korean Variant Archive 2 (KOVA 2), composed of 1,896 whole genome sequences and 3,409 whole exome sequences from healthy individuals of Korean ethnicity. This is the largest genome database from the ethnic Korean populat… Show more
