Long read assembly workshop !

Rahul Nayak — Thu, 04 Oct 2018 17:23:18 -0500

This is a tutorial for a workshop on long-read (PacBio) genome assembly.

It demonstrates how to use long PacBio sequencing reads to assemble a bacterial genome, and includes additional steps for circularising, trimming, finding plasmids, and correcting the assembly with short-read Illumina data.

Please comment if you know any other long read addembly tutorial.

Flye: Fast and accurate de novo assembler for single molecule sequencing reads

BioJoker — Tue, 02 Apr 2019 21:54:55 -0500

Flye is a de novo assembler for single molecule sequencing reads, such as those produced by PacBio and Oxford Nanopore Technologies. It is designed for a wide range of datasets, from small bacterial projects to large mammalian-scale assemblies. The package represents a complete pipeline: it takes raw PB / ONT reads as input and outputs polished contigs. Flye also includes a special mode for metagenome assembly.

MitoZ: a toolkit for animal mitochondrial genome assembly, annotation and visualization

Jit — Fri, 24 Jan 2020 04:09:15 -0600

MitoZ is a Python3-based toolkit which aims to automatically filter pair-end raw data (fastq files), assemble genome, search for mitogenome sequences from the genome assembly result, annotate mitogenome (genbank file as result), and mitogenome visualization. MitoZ is available from https://github.com/linzhi2013/MitoZ.

jtools : more efficient presentation of regression analyses

Neel — Tue, 11 Feb 2020 23:10:49 -0600

This package consists of a series of functions created by the author (Jacob) to automate otherwise tedious research tasks. At this juncture, the unifying theme is the more efficient presentation of regression analyses. There are a number of functions for other programming and statistical purposes as well. Support for the survey package’s svyglm objects as well as weighted regressions is a common theme throughout.

Notice: As of jtools version 2.0.0, all functions dealing with interactions (e.g., interact_plot(), sim_slopes(), johnson_neyman()) have been moved to a new package, aptly named interactions.

Collection of Graph Visualization tools !

Neel — Wed, 25 Jan 2023 02:57:42 -0600

Standard approaches to genome inference and analysis relate sequences to a single linear reference genome. This is efficient but has a fundamental problem: Differences from this reference are hard to observe and describe in a coherent way. Variation and sequence are separated.

Celebrating Crystallography - An animated adventure

Fri, 31 Oct 2014 15:59:00 -0500

NEW: Now with French or Spanish subtitles (click on the 'Captions' icon to select). Plus... Watch the French language version here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PvLu7BOsJhM X-ray crystallography is arguably one of the greatest innovations of the twentieth century, but not that many people know what it is or how it came about. Join us on an animated journey through the 100 year history of crystallography -- from the pioneering work of William and Lawrence Bragg in 1913 to the surface of Mars! Narrated by structural biologist Stephen Curry and produced by animation company 12foot6, the film explores the extraordinary history of crystallography. To date 28 Nobel Prizes have been awarded to projects related to the field and X-ray crystallography remains the foremost technique in determining the structures of a huge range of complex molecules. This film was produced in celebration of the Bragg Centenary and was funded by STFC.
