P_RNA_scaffolder: a fast and accurate genome scaffolder using paired-end RNA-sequencing reads

BioStar — Fri, 07 Sep 2018 05:19:06 -0500

P_RNA_scaffolder is a novel scaffolding tool using Pair-end RNA-seq to scaffold genome fragments. The method is suitable for most genomes. The program could utilize Illumina Paired-end RNA-sequencing reads from target speciesies. Our method provides another practical alternative to existing mate-pair_based approaches or other Protein-based approaches (for instance, PEP_scaffolder ) for scaffolding genome sequences. The most important feature of this method is to improve the completeness of gene regions and long-coding gene regions (for instance, circRNA).

VariantBam: Filtering and profiling of next-generational sequencing data using region-specific rules

Rahul Nayak — Thu, 04 Oct 2018 16:30:44 -0500

VariantBam is a tool to extract/count specific sets of sequencing reads from next-generational sequencing files. To save money, disk space and I/O, one may not want to store an entire BAM on disk. In many cases, it would be more efficient to store only those read-pairs or reads who intersect some region around the variant locations. Alternatively, if your scientific question is focused on only one aspect of the data (e.g. breakpoints), many reads can be removed without losing the information relevant to the problem.

Flye: Fast and accurate de novo assembler for single molecule sequencing reads

Rahul Nayak — Sat, 06 Jul 2019 03:48:22 -0500

Flye is a de novo assembler for single molecule sequencing reads, such as those produced by PacBio and Oxford Nanopore Technologies. It is designed for a wide range of datasets, from small bacterial projects to large mammalian-scale assemblies. The package represents a complete pipeline: it takes raw PB / ONT reads as input and outputs polished contigs. Flye also includes a special mode for metagenome assembly.

MitoZ: a toolkit for animal mitochondrial genome assembly, annotation and visualization

Jit — Fri, 24 Jan 2020 04:09:15 -0600

MitoZ is a Python3-based toolkit which aims to automatically filter pair-end raw data (fastq files), assemble genome, search for mitogenome sequences from the genome assembly result, annotate mitogenome (genbank file as result), and mitogenome visualization. MitoZ is available from https://github.com/linzhi2013/MitoZ.

McClintock: Meta-pipeline to identify transposable element insertions using next generation sequencing data

BioStar — Tue, 27 Oct 2020 00:21:18 -0500

an integrated bioinformatics pipeline for the detection of TE insertions in whole-genome shotgun data, called McClintock (https://github.com/bergmanlab/mcclintock), which automatically runs and standardizes output for multiple TE detection methods. We demonstrate the utility of McClintock by evaluating six TE detection methods using simulated and real genome data from the model microbial eukaryote, Saccharomyces cerevisiae.
