During the first phase of ENCODE, published in 2007, microarray-based technologies were used to detect regions associated with transcription factors, certain histone modifications and open chromatin within a pre-specified 1% of the human genome.

ENCODE’s second phase saw a switch to sequencing-based technologies, the addition of new assay types and the analysis of functional elements genome-wide, described in a collection of research articles in 2012.

The Encyclopedia paper of ENCODE 3, published in Nature, gives an overview of the various assays that were performed in human and mouse cell lines and tissues and describes a Registry of human and mouse candidate cis-regulatory elements (cCREs).

Metabuli is metagenomic classifier that jointly analyze both DNA and amino acid (AA) sequences. DNA-based classifiers can make specific classifications, exploiting point mutations to distinguish close taxa. AA-based classifiers have higher sensitivity in detecting homology between query and reference sequences, leverageing higher conservation of AA sequences. Metabuli combines the information of both sequence types using a novel k-mer structure, metamer, to enable both specific and sensitive characterization of metagenomic samples. In addition, it can classify reads against a database of any size as long as it fits in the hard disk.

sort a space-delimited file based on its first column, then the second if the first is the same, and so on:
sort input.txt

sort a huge file (GNU sort ONLY):
sort -S 1500M -t $HOME/tmp input.txt > sorted.txt

sort starting from the third column, skipping the first two columns:
sort +2 input.txt

sort the second column as numbers, descending order; if identical, sort the 3rd as strings, ascending order:
sort -k2,2nr -k3,3 input.txt

sort starting from the 4th character at column 2, as numbers:
sort -k2.4n input.txt

Biostrings

The Biostrings package from Bioconductor provides an advanced environment for efficient sequence management and analysis in R. It contains many speed and memory effective string containers, string matching algorithms, and other utilities, for fast manipulation of large sets of biological sequences. The objects and functions provided by Biostrings form the basis for many other sequence analysis packages. Documentation

RaGOO is a tool for coalescing genome assembly contigs into pseudochromosomes via minimap2 alignments to a closely related reference genome. The focus of this tool is on practicality and therefore has the following features:

1. Good performance. On a MacBook Pro using Arabidopsis data, pseudochromosome construction takes less than a minute and the whole pipeline with SV calling takes ~2 minutes.
2. Intact ordering and orienting of contigs.
3. Chimeric contig correction
4. GFF lift-over
5. Structural variant calling with and integrated version of Assemblytics
6. Confidence scores associated with the grouping, localization, and orientation for each contig.
