Method and apparatus for compressing and decompressing genetic information using next generation sequencingNGS

摘要

A method and apparatus for compressing genetic information is provided that includes obtaining lead information about leads and alignment information about positions of leads aligned in a reference sequence and compressing the information including information about addresses of blocks corresponding to aligned leads Create a file. A method and an apparatus for decompressing genetic information include the steps of obtaining a compressed file of genetic information, determining an address of a block corresponding to the gene search information input from the obtained compressed file, and storing genetic information corresponding to the determined address Optionally decompress.
