GraphMap - A highly sensitive and accurate mapper for long, error-prone reads

Rahul Agarwal — Mon, 06 Jul 2015 08:46:53 -0500

GraphMap is a novel mapper targeted at aligning long, error-prone third-generation sequencing data.
It is designed to handle Oxford Nanopore MinION 1d and 2d reads with very high sensitivity and accuracy, and also presents a significant improvement over the state-of-the-art for PacBio read mappers.

GraphMap was also designed for ease-of-use: the default parameters can handle a wide range of read lengths and error profiles, including: Illumina, PacBio and Oxford Nanopore.
This is an especially important feature for technologies where the error rates and error profiles can vary widely across, or even within, sequencing runs.

minialign: fast and accurate alignment tool for PacBio and Nanopore long reads

Jit — Thu, 24 May 2018 08:33:26 -0500

Minialign is a little bit fast and moderately accurate nucleotide sequence alignment tool designed for PacBio and Nanopore long reads. It is built on three key algorithms, minimizer-based index of the minimap overlapper, array-based seed chaining, and SIMD-parallel Smith-Waterman-Gotoh extension.

Nanopore adaptor !

Jit — Mon, 03 Feb 2020 00:10:29 -0600

Porechop is a tool for finding and removing adapters from Oxford Nanopore reads. Adapters on the ends of reads are trimmed off, and when a read has an adapter in its middle, it is treated as chimeric and chopped into separate reads. Porechop performs thorough alignments to effectively find adapters, even at low sequence identity.

Porechop also supports demultiplexing of Nanopore reads that were barcoded with the Native Barcoding Kit, PCR Barcoding Kit or Rapid Barcoding Kit.

The known Nanopore adapters that Porechop looks for are defined

https://github.com/rrwick/Porechop/blob/master/porechop/adapters.py

They are:

Ligation kit adapters
Rapid kit adapters
PCR kit adapters
Barcodes
Native barcoding

Run miniasm assembler on nanopore reads !

Jit — Mon, 18 Dec 2017 04:07:50 -0600

Miniasm is a very fast OLC-based de novo assembler for noisy long reads. It takes all-vs-all read self-mappings (typically by minimap) as input and outputs an assembly graph in the GFA format. Different from mainstream assemblers, miniasm does not have a consensus step. It simply concatenates pieces of read sequences to generate the final unitig sequences. Thus the per-base error rate is similar to the raw input reads.

Find the detail of the reads repeats:

fq2fa ONT_A.fastq ONT_A.fasta

minimap2 -xava-ont ONT_A.fasta ONT_A.fasta -t10 -X > AONT.paf

awk '{if($1==$6){print}}' AONT.paf > AONTself.paf

awk '$5=="-"' AONTself.paf | awk '{print $1}'| sort|uniq > invertedrepeat.list

Generated a few palindrome and repeats plots (highlighting only repeats largest than 10, 20 and 30 kb)

minidot -f 5 -m 30000 AONTself.paf > AONTself30000.eps
sed 's/_template_pass_FAH31515//' AONTself30000.eps > AONTself30000final.eps

minidot -f 5 -m 20000 AONTself.paf > AONTself20000.eps
sed 's/_template_pass_FAH31515//' AONTself20000.eps > AONTself20000final.eps

minidot -f 5 -m 10000 AONTself.paf > AONTself10000.eps
sed 's/_template_pass_FAH31515//' AONTself10000.eps > AONTself10000final.eps

Assemble with miniasm:

miniasm -f ONT_A.fasta AONT.paf > AONT.gfa
grep '^S' AONT.gfa |awk '{print ">"$2"\n"$3}' > AONT_miniasm.fasta

minimap2 -xasm10 AONT_miniasm.fasta AONT_miniasm.fasta -t1 -X > AONT_miniasm.paf

awk '{if($1==$6){print}}' AONT_miniasm.paf > AONT_miniasm_self.paf

minidot -f 5 -m 10000 AONT_miniasm_self.paf > AONT_miniasm_self10000.eps

Cerulean: A hybrid assembly using high throughput short and long reads

Rahul Nayak — Tue, 05 Jun 2018 10:10:15 -0500

Cerulean extends contigs assembled using short read datasets like Illumina paired-end reads using long reads like PacBio RS long reads. Cerulean v0.1 has been implemented with bacterial genomes in mind. The method is fully described in Deshpande, V., Fung, E. D., Pham, S., & Bafna, V. (2013).

Nieduszynski Group

Complete, accurate replication of the genome is essential for life. All chromosomes in eukaryotic cells must be duplicated and then segregated to daughter cells to ensure genetic integrity and produce the large number of cells that make up a multicellular organism. We are using genetic, genomic and computational methods to understand how chromosome replication is regulated to ensure genome stability. By focusing on the basic biology that underpins cell growth and division we aim to provide new insights that may help our understanding of diseases such as cancer and congenital disorders.

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
