3d-dna: 3D de novo assembly (3D DNA) pipeline

Jit — Thu, 28 Dec 2017 10:09:37 -0600

This code is designed to enable anyone to reproduce the Hs2-HiC and the AaegL4 genomes reported in: Dudchenko et al., De novo assembly of the Aedes aegypti genome using Hi-C yields chromosome-length scaffolds. Science, 2017.

Unless otherwise noted, all terminology below is consistent with this paper, and all references to figures and tables in this readme refer to this paper. Specifically, some of the terminology used below is outlined in Figure S2. The assembly procedure is described in detail in the Supporting Online Materials, specifically in the section labelled “Pipeline description”.

In addition, the pipeline uses tools and methods from Juicer (Durand & Shamim et al., Cell Systems, 2016) and Juicebox (Durand & Robinson et al., Cell Systems, 2016), as well as additional dependencies noted below.

KisSplice

Jit — Tue, 16 Aug 2016 08:34:19 -0500

KisSplice is a software that enables to analyse RNA-seq data with or without a reference genome. It is an exact local transcriptome assembler that allows to identify SNPs, indels and alternative splicing events. It can deal with an arbitrary number of biological conditions, and will quantify each variant in each condition. It has been tested on Illumina datasets of up to 1G reads. Its memory consumption is around 5Gb for 100M reads.

KisSplice is not a full-length transcriptome assembler. This means that it will output the variable regions of the transcripts, not reconstruct them entirely.

KisSplice comes as a workflow, with several possible post-treatments meant to facilitate the analysis of the results. The choice of the post-treatment depends on the availability of a reference genome/transcriptome and on the need to perform a differential analysis, as summarised in the following table.

Machine Learning !!!

In machine learning, computers apply statistical learning techniques to automatically identify patterns in data. These techniques can be used to make highly accurate predictions.

CrossMap

Abhimanyu Singh — Mon, 05 Sep 2016 04:07:38 -0500

CrossMap is a program for convenient conversion of genome coordinates (or annotation files) between different assemblies (such as Human hg18 (NCBI36) <> hg19 (GRCh37), Mouse mm9 (MGSCv37) <> mm10 (GRCm38)).
It supports most commonly used file formats including SAM/BAM, Wiggle/BigWig, BED, GFF/GTF, VCF.
CrossMap is designed to liftover genome coordinates between assemblies. It’s not a program for aligning sequences to reference genome.
We do not recommend using CrossMap to convert genome coordinates between species.

TEannot

Jit — Thu, 18 Aug 2016 10:02:03 -0500

We advise to run first the TEdenovo pipeline but it is not compulsory. We suppose you begin by running the TEannot pipeline on the example provided in the directory "db/" rather than directly on your own genomic sequences. Thus, from now on, the project name is "DmelChr4".

Ka, Ks and Ka/Ks calculations

Poonam Mahapatra — Mon, 29 Aug 2016 11:44:11 -0500

gKaKs is a codon-based genome-level Ka/Ks computation pipeline developed and based on programs from four widely used packages: BLAT, BLASTALL (including bl2seq, formatdb and fastacmd), PAML (including codeml and yn00) and KaKs_Calculator (including 10 substitution rate estimation methods). gKaKs can automatically detect and eliminate frameshift mutations and premature stop codons to compute the substitution rates (Ka, Ks and Ka/Ks) between a well-annotated genome and a non-annotated genome or even a poorly assembled scaffold dataset. It is especially useful for newly sequenced genomes that have not been well annotated.

Look for KaKs calculation:

Redundans

Jit — Thu, 01 Sep 2016 08:28:11 -0500

Redundans pipeline assists an assembly of heterozygous genomes.
Program takes as input assembled contigs, paired-end and/or mate pairs sequencing libraries and returns scaffolded homozygous genome assembly, that should be less fragmented and with total size smaller than the input contigs. In addition, Redundans will automatically close the gaps resulting from genome assembly or scaffolding more details.

The pipeline consists of three steps/modules:

redundancy reduction: detection and selectively removal of redundant contigs from an initial de novo assembly
scaffolding: joining of genome fragments using paired-end and/or mate-pairs reads
gap closing

Redundans is:

fast & lightweight, multi-core support and memory-optimised, so it can be run even on the laptop for small-to-medium size genomes
flexible toward many sequencing technologies (Illumina, 454 or Sanger) and library types (paired-end, mate pairs, fosmids)
modular: every step can be ommited or replaced by another tools
