Competing Interests

The authors have read the journal's policy and have the following conflicts: Authors LH, YF and JM are currently employed by the commercial company Life Technologies which will not gain or lose financially through this publication since its product (mate-pair sequencing technology) was used as a detection tool in this study and no conclusion on the quality of this product would be drawn. Moreover, this does not alter the authors' adherence to all the PLoS ONE policies on sharing data and materials.
