Abstract
The computational cost for a mapping process performed in analyzing genome/exome/transcriptome is reduced by sorting all cyclic permutations or suffixes of all read sequences to allow a search to be performed on the basis of any base sequence as a key. Also performed is computing and storing, for each base position in a genome sequence, the minimum length for uniqueness (MLU) at which a partial sequence starting from the base position becomes unique in the genome. In analysis of variations, a target region is scanned to inspect the number of matching read sequences that contain a partial sequence with a length of MLU and thus estimate the position of a variation, and then, the read sequences are collected at a position where the possibility of a variation having occurred is high to perform comparison analysis of the sequences.
