MPS kits covering this locus

PowerSeq 46GY (Does not cover the whole ISFG minimum range.)
ForenSeq Signature Prep/Plus and MainstAY
IDSeek mYSTR (Does not cover the whole ISFG minimum range.)

Kit range does not cover the whole ISFG minimum range of this locus (chrY:7,185,314-7,185,394), according to the kit ranges in the FSSG. Bases of the minimum range outside a kit's range are not sequenced by that kit; bases filled in from the reference should be identified as such.
