CIRCOS Visualize !!

Jit — Fri, 02 Sep 2016 08:29:26 -0500

Before uploading a data file, check the samples gallery to make sure that your data format is compatible.

Your file must be plain text.
Your data values must be non-negative integers.
Data must be space-separated (one or more tab or space, which will be collapsed).
No two rows or columns may have the same name.
Column and row names must begin with a letter (e.g. 'A', 'A0', 'A-0') and can only contain letters, numbers and _. No punctuation!
Maximum row + column total is 150 — if exceeded, rows and columns are limited to 75.
If you are using order, size and color rows/columns in combination they must appear in that order.

Sybil

Jit — Wed, 07 Sep 2016 03:20:44 -0500

The Sybil software package provides a primarily web-based front-end to comparative genome datasets warehoused in a chado relational database. It was developed by the bioinformatics department at The Institute for Genomic Research (TIGR) and development continues at the J. Craig Venter Institute (JCVI) and the Institute for Genome Sciences (IGS) at the University of Maryland: Baltimore. Sybil has been used at TIGR/JCVI, IGS, NYU, New York Medical College, Novartis Vaccines and University of Maryland: College Park to support a number of research projects that involve comparative genome analysis. The following sections provide some high-level technical details about the overall architecture and external dependencies of the Sybil package.

VirMet

Jit — Mon, 10 Oct 2016 08:27:19 -0500

Watch out: only a few files are counted in coverage statistics.

Full documentation on Read the Docs.

A set of tools for viral metagenomics.

virmet is called with a command subcommand syntax: virmet fetch --viral n, for example, downloads the bacterial database. Other available subcommands so far are

fetch download genomes
update update viral/bacterial database
index index genomes
wolfpack analyze a Miseq run
covplot plot coverage for a specific organism

A short help is obtained with virmet subcommand -h.

GenomeScope: open-source web tool to rapidly estimate the overall characteristics of a genome, including genome size, heterozygosity rate, and repeat content from unprocessed short reads

Jit — Fri, 21 Oct 2016 05:46:43 -0500

Summary: GenomeScope is an open-source web tool to rapidly estimate the overall characteristics of a genome, including genome size, heterozygosity rate, and repeat content from unprocessed short reads. These features are essential for studying genome evolution, and help to choose parameters for downstream analysis. We demonstrate its accuracy on 324 simulated and 16 real datasets with a wide range in genome sizes, heterozygosity levels, and error rates.

LINKS

Jit — Fri, 04 Nov 2016 06:19:01 -0500

LINKS is a genomics application for scaffolding genome assemblies with long reads, such as those produced by Oxford Nanopore Technologies Ltd. It can be used to scaffold high-quality draft genome assemblies with any long sequences (eg. ONT reads, PacBio reads, another draft genomes, etc)

HivePlot

Jit — Thu, 16 Feb 2017 11:39:34 -0600

The hive plot is a rational visualization method for drawing networks. Nodes are mapped to and positioned on radially distributed linear axes — this mapping is based on network structural properties. Edges are drawn as curved links. Simple and interpretable.

The purpose of the hive plot is to establish a new baseline for visualization of large networks — a method that is both general and tunable and useful as a starting point in visually exploring network structure.

ConPADE: Genome Assembly Ploidy Estimation from Next-Generation Sequencing Data

Jit — Fri, 24 Feb 2017 04:55:41 -0600

ConPADE (Contig Ploidy and Allele Dosage Estimation), a probabilistic method that estimates the ploidy of any given contig/scaffold based on its allele proportions. In the process, they report findings regarding errors in sequencing. The method can be used for whole genome shotgun (WGS) sequencing data. They also show applicability of the method for variant calling and allele dosage estimation. Results for simulated and real datasets are discussed and provide evidence that ConPADE performs well as long as enough sequencing coverage is available, or the true contig ploidy is low.

SeqMule: Automated human exome/genome variants detection

Abhimanyu Singh — Tue, 07 Mar 2017 10:12:36 -0600

SeqMule takes single-end or paird-end FASTQ or BAM files, generates a script consisting of more than 10 popular alignment, analysis tools and runs the script line by line. Users can change the pipeline or fine-tune the parameters by modifying its configuration file. SeqMule also has some built-in functions, such as pooling consensus calls from various callers, plotting a Venn diagram showing intersection among different callers, and downloading databases. SeqMule can be used for both Mendelian disease study and cancer genome study.
