Project acronym: ACGT
Project title: Analysis of Czech Genomes for Theranostics
Project registration number: EF16_026/0008448
State funding provider: Ministry of Education, Youth and Sports
Programme: EF - OPVV (2014 - 2020)
Start date: 2019-01-01
End date: 2023-06-30
Principal investigator: Hajdúch Marián M.D., Ph.D.
The project aims to establish national reference genomic database – a resource that will map the genetic variability of Czech population. On the sample of 1000 healthy individuals whole-genome sequencing will be performed with subsequent data analysis to identify differences from reference genome. Identified variants will be stored in the database together with their frequency in the population. Such data are required for proper interpretation of genetic tests.
