The Ensembl comparative genomics resources are one such reference set that facilitates comprehensive and reproducible analysis of chordate genome data. Ensembl computes pairwise and multiple whole-genome alignments from which large-scale synteny, per-base conservation scores and constrained elements are obtained. Gene alignments are used to define Ensembl Protein Families, GeneTrees and homologies for both protein-coding and non-coding RNA genes. These resources are updated frequently and have a consistent informatics infrastructure and data presentation across all supported species. Specialized web-based visualizations are also available including synteny displays, collapsible gene tree plots, a gene family locator and different alignment views. The Ensembl comparative genomics infrastructure is extensively reused for the analysis of non-vertebrate species by other projects including Ensembl Genomes and Gramene and much of the information here is relevant to these projects. The consistency of the annotation across species and the focus on vertebrates makes Ensembl an ideal system to perform and support vertebrate comparative genomic analyses. We use robust software and pipelines to produce reference comparative data and make it freely available.

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.

Hagfish requires a reference sequence and a paired end re-sequencing data set. Hagfish has more power the larger the insert size of the paired end library is.

• exteremely fast (17 CPU hours for whole Human x Mouse genome (with 40 nodes: 35 wall minutes), or 8 mammals in 21 CPU hours (42 wall minutes))
• scalable (Arbitrarily parallelizable across multiple nodes using MPI)
• memory efficient. (Even a single node with 16GB of ram can handle over 1Gbp of sequence)
• unlimited by pattern length or selection
• repeat tolerant

Run Maq Now

Follow these steps to try Maq. All you need is a reference sequence file in the FASTA format.

1. Prepare a reference sequence (ref.fasta). Better a bacterial genome.
2. Download maq, maq-data and maqview at the download page.
3. Copy maq, maq.pl and maq_eval.pl to the $PATH or to the same directory.
4. Simulate diploid reference and read sequences, map reads, call variants and evaluate the results in one go:

   maq.pl demo ref.fasta calib-30.dat
   

   where calib-30.dat is contained in maq-data.
5. View the alignment:

   cd maqdemo/easyrun;
   maqindex -i -c consensus.cns all.map;
   maqview -c consensus.cns all.map

Even for advanced maq users, running `maq.pl demo' is recommended. You may find something helpful.
