Supplementary Figure 11

Of 100 sequenced participants, 3 had a positive median LRR on the SNP array in the male-specific part of chromosome Y (mLRR-Y), indicating possible GOY. In panels a–c are plotted the SNP array and next-generation sequencing data from chromosomes 22, X and Y for each of these three subjects. The LRR and BAF values from SNP array data are plotted overlaid, and the percentages of cells affected were calculated using MAD software35. LRR values on sex chromosomes were normalized to diploid state, and chromosome X probes (residing outside PAR regions) with ambiguous clustering (scored as heterozygotes) are excluded from analyses. The ploidy estimated from next-generation sequencing data was calculated using FREEC software39. Blue lines indicate the normal copy number state, and the red line indicates the observed LOY.
