Heap: a highly sensitive and accurate SNP detection tool for low-coverage high-throughput sequencing data

Jit — Thu, 19 Apr 2018 08:06:03 -0500

Heap, that enables robustly sensitive and accurate calling of SNPs, particularly with a low coverage NGS data, which must be aligned to the reference genome sequences in advance. To reduce false positive SNPs, Heap determines genotypes and calls SNPs at each site except for sites at the both end of reads or containing a minor allele supported by only one read. Performance comparison with existing tools showed that Heap achieved the highest F-scores with low coverage (7X) restriction-site associated DNA sequencing reads of sorghum and rice individuals. This will facilitate cost-effective GWAS and GP studies in this NGS era. Code and documentation of Heap are freely available from https://github.com/meiji-bioinf/heap and our web site (http://bioinf.mind.meiji.ac.jp/lab/en/tools.html).

Alvis: a tool for contig and read ALignment VISualisation and chimera detection

LEGE — Wed, 08 May 2024 07:02:55 -0500

Alvis, a simple command line tool that can generate visualisations for a number of common alignment analysis tasks. Alvis is a fast and portable tool that accepts input in a variety of alignment formats and will output production ready vector images. Additionally, Alvis will highlight potentially chimeric reads or contigs, a common source of misassemblies.

LncPipe:A Nextflow-based pipeline for comprehensive analyses of long non-coding RNAs from RNA-seq datasets

LEGE — Fri, 17 Sep 2021 01:57:02 -0500

The pipeline was developed based on a popular workflow framework Nextflow, composed of four core procedures including reads alignment, assembly, identification and quantification. It contains various unique features such as well-designed lncRNAs annotation strategy, optimized calculating efficiency, diversified classification and interactive analysis report. LncPipe allows users additional control in interuppting the pipeline, resetting parameters from command line, modifying main script directly and resume analysis from previous checkpoint.

TULIP - The Uncorrected Long read Itegration Pipeline

Jit — Thu, 23 Nov 2017 09:30:01 -0600

#Running TULIP (The Uncorrected Long-read Integration Process), version 0.4 late 2016 (European eel)

TULIP currently consists of to Perl scripts, tulipseed.perl and tulipbulb.perl. These are very much intended as prototypes, and additional components and/or implementations are likely to follow.
Tulipseed takes as input alignments files of long reads to sparse short seeds, and outputs a graph and scaffold structures. Tulipbulb adds long read sequencing data to these.

lordFAST: sensitive and Fast Alignment Search Tool for LOng noisy Read sequencing Data

BioJoker — Tue, 27 Nov 2018 04:43:57 -0600

lordFAST is a sensitive tool for mapping long reads with high error rates. lordFAST is specially designed for aligning reads from PacBio sequencing technology but provides the user the ability to change alignment parameters depending on the reads and application.

lordFAST, a novel long-read mapper that is specifically designed to align reads generated by PacBio and potentially other SMS technologies to a reference. lordFAST not only has higher sensitivity than the available alternatives, it is also among the fastest and has a very low memory footprint.

COPE: an accurate k-mer-based pair-end reads connection tool to facilitate genome assembly

Jit — Wed, 06 Dec 2017 02:08:14 -0600

An efficient tool called Connecting Overlapped Pair-End (COPE) reads, to connect overlapping pair-end reads using k-mer frequencies. We evaluated our tool on 30× simulated pair-end reads from Arabidopsis thaliana with 1% base error. COPE connected over 99% of reads with 98.8% accuracy, which is, respectively, 10 and 2% higher than the recently published tool FLASH. When COPE is applied to real reads for genome assembly, the resulting contigs are found to have fewer errors and give a 14-fold improvement in the N50 measurement when compared with the contigs produced using unconnected reads.

ALPACA: A hybrid strategy for assembly of genomic DNA shotgun sequencing reads.

Seema Singh — Mon, 30 Apr 2018 04:38:40 -0500

ALPACA requires Celera Assembler 8.3 or later. It is recommended to build Celera Assembler from source. (Why? The pre-built binaries CA_8.3rc1 and CA8.3rc2 will work for any large data set.
