(1) identifying and estimating surrogate variables for unknown sources of variation in high-throughput experiments (Leek and Storey 2007 PLoS Genetics,2008 PNAS),

(2) directly removing known batch effects using ComBat (Johnson et al. 2007 Biostatistics) and

(3) removing batch effects with known control probes (Leek 2014 biorXiv).

Removing batch effects and using surrogate variables in differential expression analysis have been shown to reduce dependence, stabilize error rate estimates, and improve reproducibility, see (Leek and Storey 2007 PLoS Genetics, 2008 PNAS or Leek et al. 2011 Nat. Reviews Genetics).

The tutorial is divided in three main parts:

• In the Sequence part, you will see how to look efficiently for a particular protein sequence, how to blast it against the database of your choice to find homologues, how to perform a multiple alignment of the homologues you've selected and how to edit this alignment.
• The Structure part is about molecular visualization, homology modeling and structural domain prediction.
• In the Function part, you will be introduced to you 3 useful servers to investigate the function of a protein. i.e. finding interactors, co-expressed genes, see a phylogenetic profile, easily access papers citing your gene etc ...

During all the three parts, we will use the S. cerevisiae VPS36 protein as an example.

Strand NGS now supports large scale RNA- and small-RNA-Seq and Unique Molecular Identifiers (UMIs) for DNA-, RNA-, and small-RNA-Seq.

Strand Life Sciences announced the latest version release of its bioinformatics flagship product, Strand NGS, at the Annual Meeting of the American Society of Human Genetics today. Two major themes in Strand NGS v3.1 address recent challenges in next generation sequencing (NGS).

The first theme is large-scale RNA-Seq data analysis. Current cross-cohort RNA- and small-RNA-Seq studies span tens of replicates and batches across hundreds of samples, sometimes conducted across several different institutions. For such studies, Strand NGS v3.1 includes confounding variable analysis to eliminate technical effects, including batch effects; the t-SNE plot; profile and heat-map plots of gene-body coverage; and several other notable visual enhancements.

The second new feature is support for Unique Molecular Identifiers, or UMIs, for DNA-, RNA- and small-RNA-Seq. UMI support in Strand NGS is end-to-end, spanning alignment to variant calling in DNA-Seq, and alignment to quantification in RNA- and small-RNA-Seq. The Bioo Scientific, Qiagen, and Rubicon UMI protocols are natively supported, and an intuitive interface allows the specification of custom UMI protocols.

“For liquid biopsies and low-grade FFPE samples, UMI support in DNA-Seq enables the detection of somatic variants at low concentrations. In RNA-Seq, large-scale and UMI support can be used in single-cell-based studies that reveal tumor-cell heterogeneity, even at low concentrations”, says Dr. Vamsi Veeramachaneni, Chief Scientific Officer, Strand Life Sciences.

“At Strand, we are continuously working towards improving the accuracy and efficiency of NGS data analysis. Customers can look forward to Strand NGS becoming available on the cloud in the near future”, says Dr. Ramesh Hariharan, Chief Executive Officer, Strand Life Sciences.
