Chromosome-length genome assembly
Download the Allenopithecus_nigroviridis_HiC.fasta.gz file containing the chromosome-length (2n=48) assembly of the allen's swamp monkey genome. All modifications with respect to the draft (see below) are annotated in the Allenopithecus_nigroviridis_HiC.assembly file. Some basic stats associated with the new reference, Allenopithecus_nigroviridis_HiC, are listed below. The full data release can be explored here.

Draft
The chromosome-length genome assembly is based on the draft assembly Allenopithecus_nigroviridis, credited below.
The draft assembly was generated by the DNA Zoo team from short insert-size PCR-free DNA-Seq data using w2rap-contigger (Clavijo et al. 2017), see (Dudchenko et al., 2018) for details.
Method
3D Assembly was performed using 3D-DNA pipeline (Dudchenko et al., Science, 2017). The genome was reviewed using Juicebox Assembly Tools (Dudchenko et al., bioRxiv, 2018). See Methods for more information.
Hi-C sample
The blood sample for in situ Hi-C preparation was donated by a female individual named Ota, and provided to us by Houston Zoo.
Hi-C Contact maps
Hi-C data was aligned to the draft reference using Juicer (Durand, Shamim et al., Cell Systems, 2016), and contact maps visualizing the alignments with respect to the draft and the new reference were built using 3D-DNA (Dudchenko et al., Science, 2017). The contact maps can be explored below via Juicebox.js interactive tool (Robinson et al., Cell Systems, 2018). (Please note that the interactive figures are scaled 1:2.) To explore the assembly in greater detail, please download the .hic and .assembly files from the data release folder and use Juicebox Assembly Tools (Dudchenko et al., bioRxiv, 2018).
