Primary template-directed amplification (PTA) is an improved amplification technique for single-cell DNA sequencing. We generated whole-genome analysis of 76 single neurons and developed SCAN2, a computational method to accurately identify both clonal and non-clonal somatic (i.e., limited to a single neuron) single nucleotide variants (SNVs) and small insertions and deletions (indels) using PTA data. Our analysis confirms an increase in non-clonal somatic mutation in single neurons with age, but revises estimates for the rate of this accumulation to be 15 SNVs per year. We also identify artifacts in other amplification methods. Most importantly, we show that somatic indels also increase by at least 2 indels per year per neuron and that indels may have a larger impact on gene function than somatic SNVs in human neurons.

"Similar papers" are the closest papers from that journal in the model's embedding space. They show what the match is built on, but the ranking comes mostly from a classifier over the whole training set, not from these examples alone.
