Tool for detecting and cleaning PacBio / Nanopore long reads after whole genome amplification. Check the poster from the Revolutionizing Next-Generation Sequencing (2nd edition) conference in the source folder: https://github.com/swarris/Pacasus/blob/master/vib2017.pdf.

The prepint version is found on http://www.biorxiv.org/content/early/2017/08/09/173872

It uses the pyPaSWAS framework for sequence alignment (https://github.com/swarris/pyPaSWAS)

NextDenovo: string graph-based de novo assembler for TGS long reads

Jit — Sun, 05 Jan 2020 04:08:29 -0600

NextDenovo is a string graph-based de novo assembler for TGS long reads. It uses a "correct-then-assemble" strategy similar to canu, but requires significantly less computing resources and storages. After assembly, the per-base error rate is about 97-98%, to further improve single base accuracy, please use NextPolish.

NextDenovo contains two core modules: NextCorrect and NextGraph. NextCorrect can be used to correct TGS long reads with approximately 15% sequencing errors, and NextGraph can be used to construct a string graph with corrected reads. It also contains a modified version of minimap2 for adapting input and output and producing more sensitive and accurate dovetail overlaps, and some useful utilities (see here for more details).

RATT

Jitendra Narayan — Sun, 07 Feb 2016 16:09:40 -0600

RATT is software to transfer annotation from a reference (annotated) genome to an unannotated query genome.

It was first developed to transfer annotations between different genome assembly versions. However, it can also transfer annotations between strains and even different species, like Plasmodium chabaudi onto P. berghei, between different Leishmania species or Salmonella enterica onto other Salmonella serotypes. RATT is able to transfer any entries present on a reference sequence, such as the systematic id or an annotator's notes; such information would be lost in a de novo annotation.

MyPro: A seamless pipeline for automated prokaryotic genome assembly and annotation

Neel — Thu, 15 Dec 2016 05:47:35 -0600

MyPro is an improved genomics software pipeline for prokaryotic genomes. MyPro is user-friendly and requires minimal programming skills. High-quality prokaryotic genome assembly and annotation can be obtained with ease. It performed better than de novo assemblers and contig integration software. Produces more contiguous assemblies, higher N50 values and lower number of contigs.

funannotate: Eukaryotic Genome Annotation Pipeline

Jit — Wed, 19 Sep 2018 07:47:22 -0500

Funannotate is a genome prediction, annotation, and comparison software package. It was originally written to annotate fungal genomes (small eukaryotes ~ 30 Mb genomes), but has evolved over time to accomodate larger genomes. The impetus for this software package was to be able to accurately and easily annotate a genome for submission to NCBI GenBank. Existing tools (such as Maker) require significant manually editing to comply with GenBank submission rules, thus funannotate is aimed at simplifying the genome submission process.

Basic Structure of Snakemake Pipeline Run !

Abhi — Thu, 14 Oct 2021 07:01:38 -0500

/user/snakemake-demo$ ls

config.json data envs scripts slurm-240702.out Snakefile

data = mock data for the snakefile to use
Snakefile = name of the snakemake “formula” file
- Note: The default file that snakemake looks for in the current working directory is the Snakefile. If you would like to override that you can specify it following the -s
  - snakemake -s snakefile.py
envs = directory for storing the conda environments that the workflow will use.
scripts = directory for storing python scripts called by the snakemake formula.
config.json = json format file with extra parameters for our snakemake file to use.
cluster.json = json format file with specification for running on the HPC
samples.txt = file we will use later relating to the config.json file.

Run the snakemake file as a dry run (the example workflow shown above).

This will build a DAG of the jobs to be run without actually executing them.
snakemake --dry-run

User can execute rules of interest.

snakemake --dry-run all VS. snakemake --dry-run call VS. snakemake --dry-run bwa

Run the snakemake file in order to produce an image of the DAG of jobs to be run.

snakemake --dag | dot -Tsvg > dag.svg OR snakemake --dag | dot -Tsvg > dag.svg

Run the snakemake (this time not as a dry run)

snakemake --use-conda
