Sequencing.com whole-genome data
A second reading of your Sequencing.com genome
Sequencing.com sequenced you at 30x, screened the result, and gave you the files: a FASTQ, a BAM aligned to GRCh38, and a VCF. You already have one interpretation. This is a different one, from a different service, of a panel you can read by name before you pay.

What Sequencing.com gave you
Its whole-genome bundles are built on 30x sequencing in a US clinical laboratory and, on its own product pages, deliver the raw data in "standard genomics formats (FASTQ, BAM, and VCF)", the BAM "GRCh38 aligned" and the VCF "covering SNVs/SNPs, INDELs, CNVs, SVs, and mitochondrial variations". Every bundle also includes Sequencing.com's own screen, described as an analysis of "15,000+ rare diseases and medication reactions", and access to a marketplace of further apps. The files are downloadable from your account.
So this is not a case of a file nobody has read. It is a case of one reading. The question is what a second, independent one adds.
What a second reading adds
Three things, and they are the things this service is built around. First, the panel is fixed and named: every gene, condition and trait we examine is listed on one page, with counts, before you pay, and the report is built from those and nothing else. Second, every finding is attributed to the source it was restated from, and the version of each source, ClinVar, ACMG SF and CPIC among them, is pinned and printed on the report, so a result can be checked back to the guideline that produced it. Third, the report distinguishes what it found from what it could examine. A variant-only VCF cannot tell "you are clear" from "nobody looked", so a clean result from it is reported as absent, never as examined and clear.
The BAM turns absence into a measurement. Deep Read counts the bases covered at 10x or better across the whole report panel, so each gene comes back examined, partly examined, or not measured, and it calls the 29-gene pharmacogenomic panel from the reads to CPIC star-allele resolution, CYP2D6 copy number included. It ends in a one-page hand-off for a prescriber. Where the reads are too thin for a gene, the panel declines that gene rather than calling it.
What we do not do is compete on breadth. Fifteen thousand conditions is more than this report will ever list. Ours is the narrower reading that tells you where it looked, which is a different product, and for a file you already own, an inexpensive second opinion.
How to get your files out of Sequencing.com
- Sign in to your Sequencing.com account and open the file area for your genome.
- Download the VCF. It is the small file and the one the full report needs.
- Download the BAM and its index (
.bai) if you want the Deep Read panel. It is tens of gigabytes; give it a wired connection. - Upload them here as delivered. Do not rename, unpack or convert them.
Sequencing.com's products and download process are described from its public pages on 3 September 2026 and may change. We do not speak for Sequencing.com.
Your files do not leave the EU
Processing and storage are in Finland, under GDPR Article 9 special-category protection, and nothing crosses an EU border. The VCF you upload is deleted after analysis by default; the BAM slices are deleted the moment the Deep Read run finishes, whether it succeeded or failed. With your consent, and only if you want re-analysis later, we keep a small normalised variant file that you can delete from your dashboard at any time. Security & your data.
Check a Sequencing.com file before you pay
Drop the VCF or the BAM below. It is read inside this page, on your own device: nothing is uploaded, no account is needed, and you get back the format, the reference build and what report it supports.
Read on your device, not ours. Your file is never uploaded and no account is needed. We are a genomics company telling you not to send us your genome yet, and that is deliberate. Security & your data →
Reading on your device…
That's . We can build your report from it.
What it can tell you
What it can't
A chip reads a fixed set of common spots, so the rare-variant panels need a sequenced genome. We tell you this now rather than after you have paid.
One-time, yours to keep. Your file is still on your device: you upload it after checkout, over an encrypted connection, to storage in Finland.
That's : aligned reads.
This is exactly what the Deep Read pharmacogenomic panel needs: 29 targets read at base level, including the CYP2D6 star-alleles a normal VCF cannot reliably call. The standard report is built from a VCF/gVCF, so aligned reads sit alongside one rather than replacing it.
Deep Read needs standard-depth reads. A low-pass file, MyHeritage's own sequencing download among them, is read about twice over rather than thirty times, which is too thin to call these genes from. We measure the depth and stop rather than guess.
A CRAM also needs the exact reference assembly it was compressed against, not merely the same genome build. We hold the common ones and check yours before taking any money, so an assembly we cannot read is refused rather than charged for.
What the pair covers
The bundle is the whole-genome report plus the Deep Read panel. The report is built from a variant file and the panel from your reads, so it takes both. Most sequencing providers hand you both in the same download.
Nothing was uploaded, and you have not paid anything. We would rather turn a file away here than sell you a report it cannot support.
This check ran on your device from your file's header. We confirm the full file after upload, and never charge for a report we cannot build.
Common questions
The full report from your VCF plus the Deep Read panel from your BAM is €169, prepaid together. Both reports are yours to keep.
