“One code to find them all”: a perl tool to conveniently parse RepeatMasker output files

Poonam Mahapatra — Mon, 04 Jun 2018 03:45:15 -0500

One code to find them all is a set of perl scripts to extract useful information from RepeatMasker about transposable elements, retrieve their sequences and get some quantitative information. Assemble RepeatMasker hits into complete TE copies, including LTR-retrotransposon Retrieve corresponding TE sequences, and flanking sequences, from the local fasta files Compute summary statistics for each TE family (number of TE copies, genome coverage...) Ambiguous cases such as nested TE can be assembled into copies automatically or manually Allow for working with a TE user-defined library Allow for working with only a user-chosen set of TE families http://doua.prabi.fr/software/one-code-to-find-them-all

Epiviz: an interactive visualization tool for functional genomics data.

Jit — Mon, 09 Jul 2018 05:27:39 -0500

Epiviz is an interactive visualization tool for functional genomics data. It supports genome navigation like other genome browsers, but allows multiple visualizations of data within genomic regions using scatterplots, heatmaps and other user-supplied visualizations. It also includes data from the Gene Expression Barcode project for transcriptome visualization. It has a flexible plugin framework so users can addd3 visualizations. You can see a video tour here.

FMLRC: a long-read error correction tool using the multi-string Burrows Wheeler Transform

Neel — Fri, 10 Aug 2018 13:29:28 -0500

FMLRC, or FM-index Long Read Corrector, is a tool for performing hybrid correction of long read sequencing using the BWT and FM-index of short-read sequencing data. Given a BWT of the short-read sequencing data, FMLRC will build an FM-index and use that as an implicit de Bruijn graph. Each long read is then corrected independently by identifying low frequency k-mers in the long read and replacing them with the closest matching high frequency k-mers in the implicit de Bruijn graph. In contrast to other de Bruijn graph based implementations, FMLRC is not restricted to a particular k-mer size and instead uses a two pass method with both a short "k-mer" and a longer "K-mer". This allows FMLRC to correct through low complexity regions that are computational difficult for short k-mers.

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

Chromonomer: a tool set for repairing and enhancing assembled genomes through integration of genetic maps and conserved synteny

Jit — Mon, 17 Feb 2020 05:38:46 -0600

Chromonomer is a program designed to integrate a genome assembly with a genetic map. Chromonomer tries very hard to identify and remove markers that are out of order in the genetic map, when considered against their local assembly order; and to identify scaffolds that have been incorrectly assembled according to the genetic map, and split those scaffolds.

CAT/BAT: tool for taxonomic classification of contigs and metagenome-assembled genomes (MAGs)

Jit — Mon, 18 May 2020 10:53:32 -0500

Contig Annotation Tool (CAT) and Bin Annotation Tool (BAT) are pipelines for the taxonomic classification of long DNA sequences and metagenome assembled genomes (MAGs/bins) of both known and (highly) unknown microorganisms, as generated by contemporary metagenomics studies. The core algorithm of both programs involves gene calling, mapping of predicted ORFs against the nr protein database, and voting-based classification of the entire contig / MAG based on classification of the individual ORFs. CAT and BAT can be run from intermediate steps if files are formated appropriately (see Usage).

VICUNA: a software tool that enables consensus assembly of ultra-deep sequence derived from diverse viral or other heterogeneous populations.

biogeek — Tue, 25 Aug 2020 03:40:17 -0500

VICUNA is a de novo assembly program targeting populations with high mutation rates. It creates a single linear representation of the mixed population on which intra-host variants can be mapped. For clinical samples rich in contamination (e.g., >95%), VICUNA can leverage existing genomes, if available, to assemble only target-alike reads. After initial assembly, it can also use existing genomes to perform guided merging of contigs. For each data set (e.g., Illumina paired read, 454), VICUNA outputs consensus sequence(s) and the corresponding multiple sequence alignment of constituent reads. VICUNA efficiently handles ultra-deep sequence data with tens of thousands fold coverage.
