assemblytics: delta file to analyze alignments of an assembly to another assembly or a reference genome

Jit — Thu, 14 Jun 2018 07:31:00 -0500

Download and install MUMmer Align your assembly to a reference genome using nucmer (from MUMmer package) $ nucmer -maxmatch -l 100 -c 500 REFERENCE.fa ASSEMBLY.fa -prefix OUT Consult the MUMmer manual if you encounter problems Optional: Gzip the delta file to speed up upload (usually 2-4X faster) $ gzip OUT.delta Then use the OUT.delta.gz file for upload. Upload the .delta or delta.gz file (view example) to Assemblytics Important: Use only contigs rather than scaffolds from the assembly. This will prevent false positives when the number of Ns in the scaffolded sequence does not match perfectly to the distance in the reference. The unique sequence length required represents an anchor for determining if a sequence is unique enough to safely call variants from, which is an alternative to the mapping quality filter for read alignment. http://assemblytics.com/

Hawkeye: an interactive visual analytics tool for genome assemblies

Abhimanyu Singh — Tue, 01 Jan 2019 11:56:17 -0600

Genome sequencing remains an inexact science, and genome sequences can contain significant errors if they are not carefully examined. Hawkeye is our new visual analytics tool for genome assemblies, designed to aid in identifying and correcting assembly errors. Users can analyze all levels of an assembly along with summary statistics and assembly metrics, and are guided by a ranking component towards likely mis-assemblies. Hawkeye is freely available and released as part of the open source AMOS project http://amos.sourceforge.net/hawkeye.

PANEV: an R package for a pathway-based network visualization

Jit — Sun, 09 Feb 2020 12:41:52 -0600

PANEV (PAthway NEtwork Visualizer) is an R package set for gene/pathway-based network visualization. Based on information available on KEGG, it visualizes genes within a network of multiple levels (from 1 to n) of interconnected upstream and downstream pathways. The network graph visualization helps to interpret functional profiles of a cluster of genes.
