Delta: a new Web-based 3D genome visualization and analysis platform

Jit — Wed, 20 Dec 2017 08:49:55 -0600

Delta is an integrative visualization and analysis platform to facilitate visually annotating and exploring the 3D physical architecture of genomes. Delta takes Hi-C or ChIA-PET contact matrix as input and predicts the topologically associating domains and chromatin loops in the genome. It then generates a physical 3D model which represents the plausible consensus 3D structure of the genome. Deltafeatures a highly interactive visualization tool which enhances the integration of genome topology/physical structure with extensive genome annotation by juxtaposing the 3D model with diverse genomic assay outputs.

Phased Human Genome Assembly !

Rahul Nayak — Mon, 08 Oct 2018 09:10:54 -0500

The new publicly available assembly (PacBio HG00733) has the fewest gaps of any human genome assembly, with more than half of the genome contained in gapless sequence at least 27 Mb long. The primary contig assembly is 2.89 Gb long and consists of 865 contigs that were assembled with PacBio data generated with the company’s Sequel® System. Using the FALCON-Unzip assembler, maternal and paternal haplotypes were resolved over more than 80% of the genome. Maternal and paternal haplotype blocks were then further phased using Hi-C technology and the FALCON-Phase methoddeveloped in collaboration with Phase Genomics. The genome was then de novo scaffolded using Phase Genomics’ Proximo Hi-C platform, resulting in the first chromosome-scale diploid assembly of a single individual accomplished with only two technologies. More specific details about the assembly are included on the PacBio blog.

The data are available using NCBI accession IDs: BioProject: (PRJNA483067), assembly: [RBJD00000000] and sequence data (SRP155659).

Entire Human Genome Sequencing !

LEGE — Tue, 02 Apr 2024 01:19:29 -0500

Cost-effective whole human genome sequencing has revolutionized the landscape of genetic research and personalized medicine by making comprehensive genetic analysis accessible to a wider population. Through advancements in sequencing technologies, such as next-generation sequencing (NGS), costs have significantly decreased, enabling researchers and healthcare providers to analyze an individual's complete genetic makeup with greater efficiency and affordability. This has profound implications for disease diagnosis, prognosis, and treatment, as it allows for the identification of genetic predispositions and the customization of healthcare interventions based on an individual's unique genetic profile. Moreover, as the cost continues to decline, the potential for population-scale genomic studies and large-scale screening programs becomes increasingly feasible, promising to further enhance our understanding of human genetics and improve healthcare outcomes on a global scale.

TRRUST v2: an expanded reference database of human and mouse transcriptional regulatory interactions

Rahul Agarwal — Thu, 21 Dec 2017 17:01:44 -0600

TRRUST contains 8,444 and 6,552 TF-target regulatory relationships of 800 human TFs and 828 mouse TFs, respectively. They have been derived from 11,237 pubmed articles, which describe small-scale experimental studies of transcriptional regulations. To efficiently search for regulatory relationships from over 20 million pubmed articles, we used sentence-based text mining approach.

TRRUST database also provides information of mode of regulation (activation or repression). Currently 8,972 (59.8%) regulatory relationships are known for mode of regulation.
