    Human DNA with whole genome sequenced?

    Hi, I'm wondering if there's any publicly available human DNA with whole genome sequenced and released? I'm doing some capture sequencing, I guess I need some standard samples to see if I can discover all the variants in my target region, the false positive and false negative rate.
    Thanks!

    The HapMap DNAs are available. They've been genotyped for 1.5 million SNPs

      email Craig Venter or James Watson for some?

        Thanks for the replies. Most of the hapmap samples were only genotyped for the common SNPs, not sequenced. It may be easier to sequence my own whole genome than to get Venter or Watson's DNA.

        Actually I think I found the answer, Illumina sequenced the whole genome of an African sample and released the data, the sample is also a Hapmap sample that can be bought from Coriell.

          U87MG was sequenced on SOLiD, and a very common cell line.

            Craig Venter's DNA is available from the Coriell Institute.

              What about any of the high coverage 1000 genomes samples, NA12878 or NA19240 for example

                I used to post it in another thread:

                ftp://ftp.sanger.ac.uk/pub/rd/humanSequences/

                These data are processed in the same way.

                  Love this - good data definitely starts from good input, and poor input can only give relatively poor data. I particularly like the mention of Nanodrop/absorbance based methods for quantification. It's such a toss up if you'll get an accurate reading or what amounts to a randomly generated number, and a lot of library/sequencing related issues can be traced back to poor quant.

                  I’m not a sequencing expert. I’m a purification scientist who uses NGS to evaluate workflows my group develops. With this perspective, we think about the sample first and the NGS workflow second. The sequencer is an exceptionally honest reporter, but it can only report on what you give it, so whether you get clean, interpretable data from an NGS workflow is largely determined before you begin.

                  Here are nine questions we think about, in roughly the order they matter, before...
