poRe: an R package for the visualization and analysis of nanopore sequencing data

Jit — Thu, 23 Nov 2017 09:55:57 -0600

Motivation: The Oxford Nanopore MinION device represents a unique sequencing technology. As a mobile sequencing device powered by the USB port of a laptop, the MinION has huge potential applications. To enable these applications, the bioinformatics community will need to design and build a suite of tools specifically for MinION data.

Results: Here we present poRe, a package for R that enables users to manipulate, organize, summarize and visualize MinION nanopore sequencing data. As a package for R, poRe has been tested on Windows, Linux and MacOSX. Crucially, the Windows version allows users to analyse MinION data on the Windows laptop attached to the device.

Availability and implementation: poRe is released as a package for R at http://sourceforge.net/projects/rpore/ . A tutorial and further information are available at https://sourceforge.net/p/rpore/wiki/Home/

DeepVariant : an analysis pipeline that uses a deep neural network to call genetic variants from next-generation DNA sequencing data.

Jit — Sat, 25 Jan 2020 13:28:09 -0600

DeepVariant is an analysis pipeline that uses a deep neural network to call genetic variants from next-generation DNA sequencing data.

DeepVariant is an analysis pipeline that uses a deep neural network to call genetic variants from next-generation DNA sequencing data. DeepVariant relies on Nucleus, a library of Python and C++ code for reading and writing data in common genomics file formats (like SAM and VCF) designed for painless integration with the TensorFlow machine learning framework.

Juicebox: Visualization and analysis software for Hi-C data

Jit — Fri, 21 Feb 2020 00:33:38 -0600

Juicebox is visualization software for Hi-C data. This distribution includes the source code for Juicebox, Juicer Tools, and Assembly Tools. Download Juicebox here, or use Juicebox on the web. Detailed documentation is available on the wiki. Instructions below pertain primarily to usage of command line tools and the Juicebox jar files.

Juicebox can now be used to visualize and interactively (re)assemble genomes. Check out the Juicebox Assembly Tools Module website https://aidenlab.org/assembly for more details on how to use Juicebox for assembly.

This also includes:

A2Amapper: ATAC, Assembly to Assembly Comparision tool:
- Comparative mapping between two genome assemblies (same species), or between two different genomes (cross species).

Sim4db:
- Spliced alignment of cDNA and genomic sequences, from the same (sim4) or related (sim4cc) species. Optimized for high-throughput batched alignment.

LEAFF:
- LEAFF (ahem, Let's Extract Anything From Fasta) is a utility program for working with multi-fasta files. In addition to providing random access to the base level, it includes several analysis functions.

Meryl:
- An out-of-core k-mer counter. The amount of sequence that can be processed for any size k depends only on the amount of free disk space.

InteractiVenn: a web-based tool for the analysis of sets through Venn diagrams

Jit — Wed, 29 Jun 2022 03:22:26 -0500

InteractiVenn, a more flexible tool for interacting with Venn diagrams including up to six sets. It offers a clean interface for Venn diagram construction and enables analysis of set unions while preserving the shape of the diagram. Set unions are useful to reveal differences and similarities among sets and may be guided in our tool by a tree or by a list of set unions. The tool also allows obtaining subsets’ elements, saving and loading sets for further analyses, and exporting the diagram in vector and image formats. InteractiVenn has been used to analyze two biological datasets, but it may serve set analysis in a broad range of domains.

pipesnake: bioinformatics best-practice analysis pipeline for phylogenomic reconstruction

LEGE — Wed, 21 Feb 2024 06:19:41 -0600

ausarg/pipesnake is a bioinformatics best-practice analysis pipeline for phylogenomic reconstruction starting from short-read 'second-generation' sequencing data.

The pipeline is built using Nextflow, a workflow tool to run tasks across multiple compute infrastructures in a very portable manner. It uses Docker/Singularity containers making installation trivial and results highly reproducible. The Nextflow DSL2 implementation of this pipeline uses one container per process which makes it much easier to maintain and update software dependencies.

Manta: rapid detection of structural variants and indels for germline and cancer sequencing applications.

Jit — Mon, 28 May 2018 09:41:39 -0500

Manta calls structural variants (SVs) and indels from mapped paired-end sequencing reads. It is optimized for analysis of germline variation in small sets of individuals and somatic variation in tumor/normal sample pairs. Manta discovers, assembles and scores large-scale SVs, medium-sized indels and large insertions within a single efficient workflow.

SvABA: Structural variation and indel detection by local assembly

Jit — Tue, 10 Mar 2020 07:52:15 -0500

SvABA is a method for detecting structural variants in sequencing data using genome-wide local assembly. Under the hood, SvABA uses a custom implementation of SGA (String Graph Assembler) by Jared Simpson, and BWA-MEM by Heng Li. Contigs are assembled for every 25kb window (with some small overlap) for every region in the genome. The default is to use only clipped, discordant, unmapped and indel reads, although this can be customized to any set of reads at the command line using VariantBam rules. These contigs are then immediately aligned to the reference with BWA-MEM and parsed to identify variants. Sequencing reads are then realigned to the contigs with BWA-MEM, and variants are scored by their read support.
