• SVEngine is a multi-purpose and self-contained simulator for whole genome scale spike-in of thousands of SV events of various types in both single-sample and matched sample scenarios.
• SVEngine takes as input reference contigs in FASTA files, variant meta distribution as specified in META files (see Manual) or specific variant information as specified in VAR files (see Manual) and NEWICK files for specifying clonal phylogenetic trees in cancer.
• SVEngine outpus alterred contigs in FASTA files, spiked-in variants in VAR files (see Manual), simulated short read in FASTQ files and aligned short reads in BAM files.

QUAST-LG is included in the QUAST  package starting from version 5.0.0 (download the latest release). Run QUAST as usual and do not forget to add ‐‐large option to your command!

A short list of the new features (see CHANGES for all):

• Significant speedup achieved by both use of new fast aligner (minimap2) and the refactoring of alignment analyzing modules
• New k-mer-based completeness and correctness metrics
• BUSCO added for enhanced reference-free analysis
• The concept of upper bound assembly (theoretical limits on the assembly completeness and contiguity for a given genome and set of reads)

The Biotite package bundles popular tasks in computational biology into an unifying framework, which is easy to use on the one hand side, but is also computationally efficient due to intensive usage of NumPy and Cython. This package focuses on working with sequence and structure data and supports various file formats and analysis and manipulation functions.

python finisherSC.py destinedFolder mummerPath

If you are running on server computer and would like to use multiple threads, then the following commands can generate 20 threads to run FinisherSC.

python finisherSC.py -par 20 destinedFolder mummerPath

Sometimes, if the names of raw reads and contigs consists of special characters/formats, FinisherSC/MUMmer may not parse them correctly. In that case, you want to have a quick renaming of the names of contigs/reads in contigs.fasta or raw_reads.fasta using the following command.

    perl -pe 's/>[^\$]*$/">Seg" . ++$n ."\n"/ge' raw_reads.fasta > newRaw_reads.fasta
    cp newRaw_reads.fasta raw_reads.fasta
    perl -pe 's/>[^\$]*$/">Seg" . ++$n ."\n"/ge' contigs.fasta > newContigs.fasta
    cp newContigs.fasta contigs.fasta
