TelomereHunter

Jit — Fri, 02 Feb 2018 04:23:59 -0600

TelomereHunter is a tool for estimating telomere content from human whole-genome sequencing data. It is designed to take BAM files from a tumor and a matching control sample as input. However, it is also possible to run TelomereHunter with one input file. TelomereHunter extracts and sorts telomeric reads from the input sample(s). For the estimation of telomere content, GC biases are taken into account. Finally, the results of TelomereHunter are visualized in several diagrams.

TelomereHunter is available for download at the following address: https://pypi.python.org/pypi/telomerehunter/

PureCN: copy number calling and SNV classification using targeted short read sequencing

Jit — Thu, 09 Aug 2018 04:09:37 -0500

This package estimates tumor purity, copy number, and loss of heterozygosity (LOH), and classifies single nucleotide variants (SNVs) by somatic status and clonality. PureCN is designed for targeted short read sequencing data, integrates well with standard somatic variant detection and copy number pipelines, and has support for tumor samples without matching normal samples.

Maintainer: Markus Riester

Our group works on various problems connected with the functioning and evolution of biological systems. We use mathematical tools, coming from statistics and combinatorics, algorithmic tools and molecular physics tools to study basic principles of cellular functioning starting from genomic data. We run several projects in parallel, all aiming at understanding the basic principles of evolution and co-evolution of molecular structures in the cell. They are intimately linked to each other.

Our main research themes are:

Domain annotation and metagenomics
Transcriptomics and sequence analysis
Protein evolution and interactions
Protein conformational dynamics
