Scarpa

Poonam Mahapatra — Wed, 13 Jul 2016 07:59:25 -0500

Scarpa is a stand-alone scaffolding tool for NGS data. It can be used together with virtually any genome assembler and any NGS read mapper that supports SAM format. Other features include support for multiple libraries and an option to estimate insert size distributions from data. Scarpa is available free of charge for academic and commercial use under the GNU General Public License (GPL).

See the user manual or the paper for more information about Scarpa. Click here for the supplementary material.

YASS :: genomic similarity search tool

Jit — Mon, 02 May 2016 09:26:00 -0500

YASS is a genomic similarity search tool, for nucleic (DNA/RNA) sequences in fasta or plain text format (it produces local pairwise alignments). Like most of the heuristic pairwise local alignment tools for DNA sequences (FASTA, BLAST, PATTERNHUNTER, BLASTZ/LASTZ, LAST ...), YASS uses seeds to detect potential similarity regions, and then tries to extend them to local alignments. This genomic search tool uses multiple transition constrained spaced seeds that enable to search more fuzzy repeats, as non-coding DNA/RNA. Another simple, but interesting feature is that you can specify the seed pattern used in the search step (as provided for example by iedera).

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

4DGenome

Jitendra Narayan — Mon, 04 Jul 2016 00:44:55 -0500

Records in 4DGenome are compiled through comprehensive literature curation of experimentally-derived and computationally-predicted interactions. The current release contains 4,433,071 experimentally-derived and 3,605,176 computationally-predicted interactions in 5 organisms. Experimental data cover both high throughput datasets and individiual focused studies.

All interaction data are freely available in a standardized file format. Records can be queried by genomic regions, gene names, organism, and detection technology.

PASA: Gene Structure Annotation and Analysis

biogeek — Tue, 26 Dec 2017 21:14:03 -0600

PASA, acronym for Program to Assemble Spliced Alignments, is a eukaryotic genome annotation tool that exploits spliced alignments of expressed transcript sequences to automatically model gene structures, and to maintain gene structure annotation consistent with the most recently available experimental sequence data. PASA also identifies and classifies all splicing variations supported by the transcript alignments.

Delta: a new Web-based 3D genome visualization and analysis platform

Jit — Wed, 20 Dec 2017 08:49:55 -0600

Delta is an integrative visualization and analysis platform to facilitate visually annotating and exploring the 3D physical architecture of genomes. Delta takes Hi-C or ChIA-PET contact matrix as input and predicts the topologically associating domains and chromatin loops in the genome. It then generates a physical 3D model which represents the plausible consensus 3D structure of the genome. Deltafeatures a highly interactive visualization tool which enhances the integration of genome topology/physical structure with extensive genome annotation by juxtaposing the 3D model with diverse genomic assay outputs.
