Fancy Oneliner for Bioinformatics !!

Poonam Mahapatra — Thu, 07 Jul 2016 12:05:50 -0500

This webpage lists some of the one-liners that we frequently use in metagenomic analyses. You can click on the following links to browse through different topics. You can copy/paste the commands as they are in your terminal screen, provided you follow the same naming conventions and folder structures as we have. We are sharing these codes with the intention that if they are useful and help you in your analyses, then we will be appropriately credited as considerable effort has been put into devising them.

BamView: a free interactive display of read alignments in BAM data files

Neel — Fri, 09 Nov 2018 13:43:22 -0600

To run the application on UNIX from the downloaded jar file run the UNIX:

java -mx512m -jar BamView.jar

and extra command line options are given when '-h' is used:

java -jar BamView.jar -h

BAM files can be specified on the command line with the '-a' option:

java -mx512m -jar BamView.jar -a pathToFile/sorted.bam

If a BAM filename is not given on the command line BamView will prompt for a file to be entered. The BAM index file should have the same name as the BAM file but with a '.bai' suffix. Multiple BAM files can be loaded and overlaid in the viewer. To make this easier BamView will read in files that contain a list of filenames.

Quip: Aggressive compression of FASTQ, SAM and BAM files.

Neel — Tue, 24 May 2022 06:31:48 -0500

This will help us to reduce the amount of drive space we take up and decrease data transfer times

Quip compresses next-generation sequencing data with extreme prejudice. It supports input and output in the FASTQ and SAM/BAM formats, compressing large datasets to as little as 15% of their original size.

Qualimap2: Evaluating next generation sequencing alignment data

Jit — Tue, 11 Sep 2018 04:44:29 -0500

Qualimap 2 is a platform-independent application written in Java and R that provides both a Graphical User Inteface (GUI) and a command-line interface to facilitate the quality control of alignment sequencing data and its derivatives like feature counts.

Supported types of experiments include:

Whole-genome sequencing
Whole-exome sequencing
RNA-seq (speical mode available)
ChIP-seq

BEDOPS v2.4.26: high-performance genomic feature operations

Jit — Mon, 12 Jun 2017 10:11:01 -0500

BEDOPS v2.4.26 is a suite of tools to address common questions raised in genomic studies — mostly with regard to overlap and proximity relationships between data sets. It aims to be scalable and flexible, facilitating the efficient and accurate analysis and management of large-scale genomic data.

The overview section of the BEDOPS v2.4.26 documentation summarizes the toolkit, functionality and performance enhancements. The reference table offers documentation for all applications and scripts.

Laboratory of Statistics and Computational tools for Bioinformatics

The Laboratory of Statistics and Computational tools for Bioinformatics (BioinfoLab) is hosted at the Istituto per le Applicazioni del Calcolo "Mauro Picone" - CNR . The laboratory has been officially opened in 2012 with the support of Programma Operativo Nazionale "Ricerca e Competitività" 2007-2013 (PON "R&C"), and it incorporates several expertise and research activities started since 2007, and supported by several CNR projects. Main interest of BioinfoLab is to develop novel statistical methods and computational tools for the analysis of high dimensional data arising from "Multi-omics" applications. In particular, current activities involve the analysis of ChIP-seq and RNA-seq experiments.

Applied Statistics for Bioinformatics using R

Neel — Thu, 30 Aug 2018 03:45:39 -0500

The purpose of this book is to give an introduction into statistics in order to solve some problems of bioinformatics. Statistics provides procedures to explore and visualize data as well as to test biological hypotheses. The book intends to be introductory in explaining and programming elementary statistical concepts, thereby bridging the gap between high school levels and the specialized statistical literature

AMStat: display statistics of large sequence files from next generation sequencing projects

Neel — Fri, 09 Nov 2018 13:34:56 -0600

SAMStat is an efficient C program to quickly display statistics of large sequence files from next generation sequencing projects. When applied to SAM/BAM files all statistics are reported for unmapped, poorly and accurately mapped reads separately. This allows for identification of a variety of problems, such as remaining linker and adaptor sequences, causing poor mapping. Apart from this SAMStat can be used to verify individual processing steps in large analysis pipelines.
