Summary:Described herein is a system and process for long read sequencing using PCR primers with incorporated Unique Molecular Identifiers (UMIs) for generating a single molecule consensus for each starting molecule in the sample population. This method reduces the sequencing error rate by generating a consensus from the individual reads in each UMI group, averaging out sequencing errors to give better confidence in the actual sequence, to allow for increased accuracy of quantifying the precise knock-in event, and reporting perfect HDR integration.
