AfterQC: Automatic Filtering, Trimming, Error Removing and Quality Control for fastq data

Jit — Fri, 29 Jun 2018 03:26:03 -0500

Automatic Filtering, Trimming, Error Removing and Quality Control for fastq data AfterQC can simply go through all fastq files in a folder and then output three folders: good, bad and QC folders, which contains good reads, bad reads and the QC results of each fastq file/pair. Currently it supports processing data from HiSeq 2000/2500/3000/4000, Nextseq 500/550, MiniSeq...and other Illumina 1.8 or newer formats The author has reimplemented this tool in C++ with multithreading support to make it much faster. The new tool is called fastp and can be found at: https://github.com/OpenGene/fastp . If you prefer a C++ based tool, please use fastp instead. https://github.com/OpenGene/AfterQC

SeqMonk:A tool to visualise and analyse high throughput mapped sequence data

Jit — Tue, 11 Sep 2018 04:39:38 -0500

SeqMonk is a program to enable the visualisation and analysis of mapped sequence data. It was written for use with mapped next generation sequence data but can in theory be used for any dataset which can be expressed as a series of genomic positions. It's main features are:

Import of mapped data from mapped data (BAM/SAM/bowtie etc)
Creation of data groups for visualisation and analysis
Visualisation of mapped regions against an annotated genome.
Flexible quantitation of the mapped data to allow comparisons between data sets
Statistical analysis of data to find regions of interest
Creation of reports containing data and genome annotation

ClinCNV: Detection of copy number changes in Germline/Trio/Somatic contexts in NGS data

Neel — Thu, 16 Jan 2020 23:16:02 -0600

ClinCNV detects CNVs in germline and somatic context in NGS data (targeted and whole-genome). We work in cohorts, so it makes sense to try ClinCNV if you have more than 10 samples (recommended amount - 40 since we estimate variances from the data). By "cohort" we mean samples sequenced with the same enrichment kit with approximately the same depth (ie 1x WGS and 30x WGS better be analysed in separate runs of ClinCNV). Of course it is better if your samples were sequenced within the same sequencing facility.

LoFreq*: A sequence-quality aware, ultra-sensitive variant caller for NGS data

BioStar — Tue, 18 Feb 2020 03:24:22 -0600

LoFreq* (i.e. LoFreq version 2) is a fast and sensitive variant-caller for inferring SNVs and indels from next-generation sequencing data. It makes full use of base-call qualities and other sources of errors inherent in sequencing (e.g. mapping or base/indel alignment uncertainty), which are usually ignored by other methods or only used for filtering.

DADA2: Fast and accurate sample inference from amplicon data with single-nucleotide resolution

Jit — Tue, 10 Nov 2020 20:26:00 -0600

The DADA2 tutorial goes through a typical workflow for paired end Illumina Miseq data: raw amplicon sequencing data is processed into the table of exact amplicon sequence variants (ASVs) present in each sample.

The DADA2 Workflow on Big Data goes through workflow optimized to run on large datasets (10s of millions to billions of reads).

An ITS-specific version of the DADA2 workflow identifies and verifiably removes primers on both ends of each ITS read, a key step due to the variable length of the ITS region.

Short demonstrations of assigning taxonomy and assigning species to sequences.

PLAR: Pipeline for lncRNA annotation from RNA-seq data

Abhi — Fri, 07 Jan 2022 06:18:01 -0600

Due to several requests, we are releasing an assingment of orthologs, determined using the same methods used in Hezroni et al. (BLAST, Whole Genome Alignment (WGA), and synteny). One is comparing human GENCODE genes (from GENCODE v30) to lncRNAs from other species identified by PLAR. Available here.

BioKit: a set of tools dedicated to bioinformatics, data visualisation

Neel — Tue, 18 Jun 2024 02:04:39 -0500

BioKit is a set of tools dedicated to bioinformatics, data visualisation (biokit.viz), access to online biological data (e.g. UniProt, NCBI thanks to bioservices). It also contains more advanced tools related to data analysis (e.g., biokit.stats). Since R is quite common in bioinformatics, we also provide a convenient module to run R inside your Python scripts or shell (:mod:biokit.rtools module).

Managing and Analyzing Next-Generation Sequence Data

Rahul Agarwal — Sat, 10 May 2014 06:28:06 -0500

Centralized Bioinformatics Core Facilities provide shared resources for the computational and IT requirements of the investigators in their department or institution. As such, they must be able to effectively react to new types of experimental technology. Recently faced with an unprecedented flood of data generated by the next generation of DNA sequencers, these groups found it necessary to respond quickly and efficiently to the informatics and infrastructure demands. Centralized Facilities newly facing this challenge need to anticipate time and design considerations of necessary components, including infrastructure upgrades, staffing, and tools for data analyses and management ...
