Pragmatic soft-decision data readout of encoded large DNA.

ABSTRACT: The encoded large DNA can be cloned and stored in vivo, capable of write-once and stable replication for multiple retrievals, offering potential in economic data archiving. Nanopore sequencing is advantageous in data access of large DNA due to its rapidity and long-read sequencing capability. However, the data readout is commonly limited by insertion and deletion (indel) errors and sequence assembly complexity. Here, a pragmatic soft-decision data readout is presented, achieving assembly-free sequence reconstruction, indel error correction, and ultra-low coverage data readout. Specifically, the watermark is cleverly embedded within large DNA fragments, allowing for the direct localization of raw reads via watermark alignment to avoid complex read assembly.
