WiseScaffolder is a stand-alone semi-automatic application for genome scaffolding of pre-assembled contigs using mate-pair data. It also produces editable scaffold maps, allowing either to build gapped scaffolds or usable as a common thread for the manual improvement of scaffolds.

Description 

WiseScaffolder includes 4 subcommands: dumpconfig generates a configuration file that notably specifies the average insert size of the mate-pair library preprocess allows the detection and correction of chimerae, the estimation of contigs copy number and produces valuable outputs for the manual improvement of scaffolds scaffold constitutes the central scaffold-builder and comprises two modules:

i) the interative_scaffold_extender, which works with big, unambiguous contigs, or when they run out, single copy contigs, and

ii) the small_contig_inserter, which inserts the small contigs within scaffolds buildfasta converts the scaffold(s) map(s) into Fasta sequences.

Main features of YASS are:

• multiple, possibly overlapping seeds and a new hit criterion to ensure a good sensitivity/selectivity trade-off
• transition-constrained spaced seeds to improve sensitivity (transition mutations are purine to purine [A<->G] or pyrimidine to pyrimidine [C<->T])
• using different scoring schemes with bit-score and E-value evaluated according to the sequence background frequencies
• parameterizable output filter for low complexity repeats
• reporting of various alignment statistical parameters (mutation bias along triplets, transition/transversion)
• post-processing step to group gapped alignments

A very nice book by Winston Chang for R ethusiast. The R code presented in these pages is the R code actually used to produce the Figures in the book. There will be differences compared to the code chunks shown in the text of the book, but in most cases the differences will be that these pages contain additional code to lay out multiple plots on a single "page".

The code presented for each figure is self-contained, i.e., all code required to produce the figure is included. This means that there is sometimes considerable overlap of code between several figures  In some cases, it may be necessary to install an add-on package from CRAN to get the code to run.

• For each genome, obtain a set of exon annotations. These annotations can be a combination of both exon predictions (e.g. Genscan) and annotations that have been experimentally verified (e.g. RefSeq). Ideally, we would like to have these annotations be as sensitive as possible. Specificity is not a concern, as incorrect annotations are not likely not have significant alignments with other gene annotations.
• Compare all exons against all exons in other genomes and record significant alignments between exons. Currently, we use BLAT to do this all-vs-all comparison with alignments being performed in protein space.
• Construct a graph with each vertex corresponding to a exon and edges between vertices whose corresponding exons have significant alignments.
• Identify cliques in this graph. These cliques are potential anchors to be used in the map.
• Starting with the largest cliques (those that have exons in all or most of the genomes), join neighboring (adjacent in genomic coordinates, in each genome) cliques to form runs. Smaller cliques that are inconsistent with runs formed by larger cliques are filtered out. After the smallest cliques have been considered, cliques that are not part of a run are discarded.
• The extents of each run in each genome are outputted as orthologous segments. The cliques from each run are used to output the exact genomic coordinates of anchors within each orthologous segment. These anchors can be used by genomic alignment programs (such as MAVID) to do a detailed alignment of each orthologous segment.
