CLAW: Chloroplast Long-read Assembly Workflow

LEGE — Wed, 21 Feb 2024 12:37:46 -0600

CLAW (Chloroplast Long-read Assembly Workflow) is an mostly-automated Snakemake-based workflow for the assembly of chloroplast genomes. CLAW uses chloroplast long-reads, which are baited out of larger read libraries (e.g., an Oxford Nanopore Technologies MinION read library derived from photosynthetic tissue), for assembly with Flye and/or Unicycler. CLAW was designed with the novice bioinformatician in mind - it is easy to install and easy to use, requiring only minimal user input.

Boku Chair of Bioinformatics

Sun, 14 Jul 2013 12:37:23 -0500

The Bioinformatics group at Boku University has two main areas of interest, underpinning a common goal, the study of complex systems in living organisms. To overcome the engineered redundancies and combinatorial effects prevalent in higher eukaryotes, novel views augmenting the classical gene by gene approaches are required. We combine
Work to establish improved quantitative experimental assays (such as microarrays or differential in-gel electrophoresis) and
Development of modern computational methods (such as hierarchical probabilistic models or integration of heterogeneous data sources)
