DRAGEN™ v4.3 is here with new features that enhance the coverage of the genome including a next-generation multigenome (graph) reference that can now incorporate hundreds of high-quality assemblies such as those built by the Human Pangenome Reference Consortium (HPRC).

DRAGEN v4.3 includes a new machine learning mosaic calling model in the small variant caller; and a new family of specialized callers called MRJD (Multi-Region Joint Detection) that can be used for screening in paralogous regions for mutations in difficult genes such as PMS2.

Hear more about the new features in the upcoming technical webinar on DRAGEN 4.3.

• Advancement with next-generation multigenome (graph) reference and DRAGEN’s best accuracy
• New integrated mosaic caller
• New specialized callers like Multi-Region Joint detection that enables genotyping of genes such as PMS2, NEB, IKBKG etc. in segmental duplication regions
• Enhanced efficiency with unified targeted caller output
• Improvements in ORA compression to support non-human genomes and more
