github.com - RefKA, a reference-based approach for long read genome assembly. This approach relies on breaking up a closely related reference genome into bins, aligning k-mers unique to each bin with PacBio reads, and then assembling each bin in parallel...
github.com - GraphMap - A highly sensitive and accurate mapper for long, error-prone reads http://www.nature.com/ncomms/2016/160415/ncomms11307/full/ncomms11307.htmlFeatures Mapping position agnostic to alignment parameters. ...
www.nature.com - Second generation sequencing has revolutionized genomic studies. However, most genomes contain repeated DNA elements that are longer than the read lengths achievable with typical sequencers, so the genomic order of several generated contigs cannot...
github.com - Porechop is a tool for finding and removing adapters from Oxford Nanopore reads. Adapters on the ends of reads are trimmed off, and when a read has an adapter in its middle, it is treated as chimeric and chopped into separate reads....
Miniasm is a very fast OLC-based de novo assembler for noisy long reads. It takes all-vs-all read self-mappings (typically by minimap) as input and outputs an assembly graph in the GFA format. Different from mainstream...
Workshop in Bioinformatics, 4/June/2012
Campus Vida's Research Centers organize in Santiago de Compostela the Workshop in Bioinformatics. This event addressed issues such as structural bioinformatics, biological modelling and mining bioinformatics...
Applications are invited for a postdoctoral research assistant to work in the Translational Neuroscience and Dementia Research Group (TNDRG) on a project using informatics approaches to understand and prevent dementia, specifically on the role of...

github.com - MashMap is a fast and approximate software for mapping long reads (PacBio/ONT) or assembly to reference genome(s). It maps a query sequence against a reference region if and only if its estimated alignment identity is above a specified threshold. It...
gite.lirmm.fr - An error correction method that uses long reads only. The method consists of two phases: first, we use an iterative alignment-free correction method based on de Bruijn graphs with increasing length of k-mers, and second, the corrected reads are...
