Osprey: Network Visualization System

BioJoker — Sun, 20 Jan 2019 05:34:24 -0600

Osprey is a software platform for the visualization of complex biological interaction networks. Osprey builds data-rich graphical representations from Gene Ontology (GO) annotated interaction data maintained by the BioGRID.

Osprey is developed by the TyersLab and is a part of the BioGRID family of software. It utilizes both MySQL and Java to operate and is compatible with Windows, Linux, and Apple operating systems.

These works were published in Breitkreutz, BJ., Stark, C., Tyers M. "Osprey: A Network Visualization System." Genome Biology 2003 4(3):R22 [Genome Biology] [PDF] [PubMed] and supported by the National Institutes of Health, Canadian Institutes of Health Research, and Genome Canada.

A Subway Map for the Genome

LEGE — Fri, 04 Sep 2026 04:14:14 -0500

Maya was looking at a genome graph on her computer. There were nodes, branches, and paths going in every direction.

“It’s like a subway map,” she said, “but for DNA.”

That idea is exactly what Sequence Tube Map brings to life.

Instead of showing a genome as one long, confusing sequence, it displays different genomic paths like routes on a metro map. Where sequences are shared, the paths travel together. Where genetic variation occurs, they branch into different routes and may join again later.

This makes complex genome graphs much easier to explore.

Maya could now see how different haplotypes moved through the same genomic region and where they took different paths. She could even view sequencing reads mapped onto the graph, helping her understand what was happening in regions with genetic variation.

What once looked like a tangled network now looked like a journey.

Sequence Tube Map turns the complexity of graph genomes into a visual story—making it easier for scientists to see how DNA can take different routes.

poRe: an R package for the visualization and analysis of nanopore sequencing data

Jit — Thu, 23 Nov 2017 09:55:57 -0600

Motivation: The Oxford Nanopore MinION device represents a unique sequencing technology. As a mobile sequencing device powered by the USB port of a laptop, the MinION has huge potential applications. To enable these applications, the bioinformatics community will need to design and build a suite of tools specifically for MinION data.

Results: Here we present poRe, a package for R that enables users to manipulate, organize, summarize and visualize MinION nanopore sequencing data. As a package for R, poRe has been tested on Windows, Linux and MacOSX. Crucially, the Windows version allows users to analyse MinION data on the Windows laptop attached to the device.

Availability and implementation: poRe is released as a package for R at http://sourceforge.net/projects/rpore/ . A tutorial and further information are available at https://sourceforge.net/p/rpore/wiki/Home/
