SvABA: Structural variation and indel detection by local assembly

Jit — Tue, 10 Mar 2020 07:52:15 -0500

SvABA is a method for detecting structural variants in sequencing data using genome-wide local assembly. Under the hood, SvABA uses a custom implementation of SGA (String Graph Assembler) by Jared Simpson, and BWA-MEM by Heng Li. Contigs are assembled for every 25kb window (with some small overlap) for every region in the genome. The default is to use only clipped, discordant, unmapped and indel reads, although this can be customized to any set of reads at the command line using VariantBam rules. These contigs are then immediately aligned to the reference with BWA-MEM and parsed to identify variants. Sequencing reads are then realigned to the contigs with BWA-MEM, and variants are scored by their read support.

HELIANO: A fast and accurate tool for detection of Helitron-like elements

LEGE — Tue, 13 Aug 2024 07:16:34 -0500

Helitron-like elements (HLE1 and HLE2) are DNA transposons. They have been found in diverse species and seem to play significant roles in the evolution of host genomes. Although known for over twenty years, Helitron sequences are still challenging to identify. Here, we propose HELIANO (Helitron-like elements annotator) as an efficient solution for detecting Helitron-like elements.

COSINE: non-seeding method for mapping long noisy sequences

Jit — Fri, 26 Oct 2018 00:41:59 -0500

Third generation sequencing (TGS) are highly promising technologies but the long and noisy reads from TGS are difficult to align using existing algorithms. Here, we present COSINE, a conceptually new method designed specifically for aligning long reads contaminated by a high level of errors.

MEC: Contig Misassembly Correction

BioStar — Tue, 04 Feb 2020 23:40:49 -0600

MEC, to identify and correct misassemblies in contigs. Firstly, MEC takes fragment coverage as the feature to detect the candidate misassemblies. Then, it can distinguish a large number of false positives from the candidate misassemblies based on the distribution of paired-end reads and the statistical analysis of GC-contents. We apply MEC to four real contig datasets, and carry out experiments to analyze the influence of MEC on scaffolding results, which shows that MEC can reduce misassemblies effectively and result in quantitative improvements in scaffolding quality. MEC is publicly available for download at https://github.com/bioinfomaticsCSU/MEC.

Run miniasm assembler on nanopore reads !

Jit — Mon, 18 Dec 2017 04:07:50 -0600

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 assemblers, miniasm does not have a consensus step. It simply concatenates pieces of read sequences to generate the final unitig sequences. Thus the per-base error rate is similar to the raw input reads.

Find the detail of the reads repeats:

fq2fa ONT_A.fastq ONT_A.fasta

minimap2 -xava-ont ONT_A.fasta ONT_A.fasta -t10 -X > AONT.paf

awk '{if($1==$6){print}}' AONT.paf > AONTself.paf

awk '$5=="-"' AONTself.paf | awk '{print $1}'| sort|uniq > invertedrepeat.list

Generated a few palindrome and repeats plots (highlighting only repeats largest than 10, 20 and 30 kb)

minidot -f 5 -m 30000 AONTself.paf > AONTself30000.eps
sed 's/_template_pass_FAH31515//' AONTself30000.eps > AONTself30000final.eps

minidot -f 5 -m 20000 AONTself.paf > AONTself20000.eps
sed 's/_template_pass_FAH31515//' AONTself20000.eps > AONTself20000final.eps

minidot -f 5 -m 10000 AONTself.paf > AONTself10000.eps
sed 's/_template_pass_FAH31515//' AONTself10000.eps > AONTself10000final.eps

Assemble with miniasm:

miniasm -f ONT_A.fasta AONT.paf > AONT.gfa
grep '^S' AONT.gfa |awk '{print ">"$2"\n"$3}' > AONT_miniasm.fasta

minimap2 -xasm10 AONT_miniasm.fasta AONT_miniasm.fasta -t1 -X > AONT_miniasm.paf

awk '{if($1==$6){print}}' AONT_miniasm.paf > AONT_miniasm_self.paf

minidot -f 5 -m 10000 AONT_miniasm_self.paf > AONT_miniasm_self10000.eps

Flye: Fast and accurate de novo assembler for single molecule sequencing reads

Jit — Fri, 04 May 2018 19:16:22 -0500

Flye is a de novo assembler for long and noisy reads, such as those produced by PacBio and Oxford Nanopore Technologies. The algorithm uses an A-Bruijn graph to find the overlaps between reads and does not require them to be error-corrected. After the initial assembly, Flye performs an extra repeat classification and analysis step to improve the structural accuracy of the resulting sequence. The package also includes a polisher module, which produces the final assembly of high nucleotide-level quality.

Breakpointer: using local mapping artifacts to support sequence breakpoint discovery from single-end reads

Jit — Tue, 12 Jun 2018 12:41:10 -0500

Breakpointer is a fast tool for locating sequence breakpoints from the alignment of single end reads (SE) produced by next generation sequencing (NGS). It adopts a heuristic method in searching for local mapping signatures created by insertion/deletions (indels) or more complex structural variants(SVs).
