EvidentialGene: tr2aacds, mRNA Transcript Assembly Software

Rahul Nayak — Tue, 08 May 2018 04:39:39 -0500

EvidentialGene is a genome informatics project, "Evidence Directed Gene Construction for Eukaryotes", to construct high quality, accurate gene sets for animals and plants, developed by Don Gilbert at Indiana University, see
http://arthropods.eugenes.org/EvidentialGene/

Construction refers to the combination of classical gene prediction, and more recent gene assembly (de-novo and genome-assisted) methods. The basic Evigene methods involve using available best-of-breed gene prediction and assembly software, combining all evidence for genes, from expressed sequences, genome assembly sequences, related species protein sequences, and any other, to annotate and score gene constructions. Over-produced constructions are classified by gene evidence for best qualities per "locus", including genome-aligned and gene-transcript aligned (genome-free) locus identification. All software developed for EvidentialGene is publicly available. See project wiki/blog for notes.

Comprehensive list of visualization tools for biological pathways

Neel — Tue, 30 Jan 2018 06:01:31 -0600

The study of biological pathways is a key to understand the different processes inside a cell: proteins exert their function not in isolation but in a tightly controlled network of interactions and reactions. Activation of a pathway typically leads to a change of state in the cell. Pathways come in different flavors, depending on their functions in the cell – the three main types are metabolic pathways, gene regulatory pathways, and signaling pathways. These biological pathways and networks are not only an appropriate approach to visualize molecular reactions. They have also become one leading method in -omics data analysis and visualization.

HISAT2: a fast and sensitive alignment program for mapping next-generation sequencing reads

Rahul Nayak — Tue, 08 May 2018 04:27:22 -0500

HISAT2 is a fast and sensitive alignment program for mapping next-generation sequencing reads (both DNA and RNA) to a population of human genomes (as well as to a single reference genome). Based on an extension of BWT for graphs [Sirén et al. 2014], we designed and implemented a graph FM index (GFM), an original approach and its first implementation to the best of our knowledge. In addition to using one global GFM index that represents a population of human genomes, HISAT2 uses a large set of small GFM indexes that collectively cover the whole genome (each index representing a genomic region of 56 Kbp, with 55,000 indexes needed to cover the human population). These small indexes (called local indexes), combined with several alignment strategies, enable rapid and accurate alignment of sequencing reads. This new indexing scheme is called a Hierarchical Graph FM index (HGFM).

Upset plots !

BioStar — Fri, 24 Mar 2023 22:30:23 -0500

Upset plots are a type of visualization used to analyze the intersection of sets or categories. They are particularly useful for displaying data with multiple categories and analyzing their overlaps.

In an upset plot, each row represents a category or set, and each column represents a data point. The length of the bar for each category indicates the number of data points that belong to that category. The plot also shows the intersections between categories, represented by overlapping bars.

Upset plots are useful for visualizing complex data with multiple categories and intersections, and can help identify patterns and relationships between categories. They are often used in fields such as bioinformatics, where they can be used to analyze gene expression data or to compare the results of different experimental conditions.
