Segmental duplications and their variation in a complete human genome
Open accessPublished version of a preprint
Abstract
Despite their importance in disease and evolution, highly identical segmental duplications (SDs) are among the last regions of the human reference genome (GRCh38) to be fully sequenced. Using a complete telomere-to-telomere human genome (T2T-CHM13), we present a comprehensive view of human SD organization. SDs account for nearly one-third of the additional sequence, increasing the genome-wide estimate from 5.4 to 7.0% [218 million base pairs (Mbp)]. An analysis of 268 human genomes shows that 91% of the previously unresolved T2T-CHM13 SD sequence (68.3 Mbp) better represents human copy number variation. Comparing long-read assemblies from human ( n = 12) and nonhuman primate ( n = 5) genomes, we systematically reconstruct the evolution and structural haplotype diversity of biomedically relevant and duplicated genes. This analysis reveals patterns of structural heterozygosity and evolutionary differences in SD organization between humans and other primates.

Collapsed segmental duplications in GRCh38 and GRCh37, such as the GPRIN2A/B region, often result in erroneous variant calls.
“Furthermore, collapsed segmental duplications in GRCh38 and GRCh37, such as the GPRIN2A/B region [28, 38], often result in erroneous variant calls.”
From A refined analysis of Neanderthal-introgressed sequences in modern humans with a complete reference genome (2025) · cites this paper as [28]
The Results section ('Single-nucleotide and copy number variation within SDs'; page unavailable) reports that GRCh38 tends to underestimate normal human copy number in non-syntenic segmental duplications. That supports a reference-assembly problem, but our copy does not identify GPRIN2A/B or GRCh37, or establish that collapsed duplications often cause erroneous variant calls. (LLM, conf=0.81)

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
