AIRVF: a filtering toolbox for precise variant calling in Ion Torrent sequencing

BioStar — Fri, 22 Dec 2017 00:31:06 -0600

AIRVF that works on flowgram, raw and mapped reads and called variants to reduce artifact-driven false variant calls. Tests on sequencing data of standard reference material showed up to ∼98% reduction of false variants when combined to conventional public pipelines and ∼48% to the in-house commercial solution, with a minimal loss of sensitivity

HapCUT2: robust and accurate haplotype assembly for diverse sequencing technologies

Jit — Tue, 15 May 2018 07:35:26 -0500

HapCUT2 is a maximum-likelihood-based tool for assembling haplotypes from DNA sequence reads, designed to "just work" with excellent speed and accuracy. We found that previously described haplotype assembly methods are specialized for specific read technologies or protocols, with slow or inaccurate performance on others. With this in mind, HapCUT2 is designed for speed and accuracy across diverse sequencing technologies, including but not limited to: NGS short reads (Illumina HiSeq) clone-based sequencing (Fosmid or BAC clones) SMRT reads (PacBio) Oxford Nanopore reads 10X Genomics Linked-Reads proximity-ligation (Hi-C) reads high-coverage sequencing (>40x coverage-per-SNP) using above technologies combinations of the above technologies (e.g. scaffold long reads with Hi-C reads) See below for specific examples of command line options and best practices for some of these technologies. NOTE: At this time HapCUT2 is for diploid organisms only. VCF input should contain diploid variants. If you use HapCUT2 in your research, please cite: Edge, P., Bafna, V. & Bansal, V.

gSearch: a fast and flexible general search tool for whole-genome sequencing

Jit — Mon, 06 Aug 2018 17:19:15 -0500

gSearch compares sequence variants in the Genome Variation Format (GVF) or Variant Call Format (VCF) with a pre-compiled annotation or with variants in other genomes. Its search algorithms are subsequently optimized and implemented in a multi-threaded manner.

d2Tools: The toolbox for counting the frequency of k-tuple from sequencing datasets and calculate the dissimilarity

Jit — Thu, 20 Sep 2018 08:38:29 -0500

d2Tools are the toolbox for counting the frequency of K-tuple from sequencing datasets and then calculating the pairwise dissimilarity matrix between samples with the d2-style(d2/d2*/d2S representing d2/d2Star/d2shepp, respectively) measures. Hao, Dai, Eucliean, Mahattan, and Chebyshev distance measures are also included in d2Tools.

EXCAVATOR: detecting copy number variants from whole-exome sequencing data

Radha Agarkar — Fri, 04 Jan 2019 10:10:48 -0600

EXCAVATOR, for the detection of copy number variants (CNVs) from whole-exome sequencing data. EXCAVATOR combines a three-step normalization procedure with a novel heterogeneous hidden Markov model algorithm and a calling method that classifies genomic regions into five copy number states. We validate EXCAVATOR on three datasets and compare the results with three other methods. These analyses show that EXCAVATOR outperforms the other methods and is therefore a valuable tool for the investigation of CNVs in largescale projects, as well as in clinical research and diagnostics. EXCAVATOR is freely available at http://sourceforge.net/projects/excavatortool/.

EXCAVATOR is a novel software package for the detection of copy number variants (CNVs) from whole-exome sequencing data.
EXCAVATOR has been published on Genome Biology (http://genomebiology.com/2013/14/10/R120/abstract).

In many autoimmune diseases, a misdirected immune response leads to chronic inflammation and subsequently to fibrotic and degenerative tissue remodeling. Therapeutic options are available for inflammatory joint diseases, but only about 40% of patients respond to these existing therapies on a permanent basis. In the remaining cases, these therapies miss their target from the beginning or later during the course of treatment failure. There are currently no causal therapies available for the treatment of fibrotic autoimmune diseases such as systemic sclerosis. Therefore, there is an urgent need to develop new therapeutic options for the treatment of fibrotic and synovitic autoimmune diseases. His group is therefore deal with the molecular mechanisms of these misdirected signaling pathways for the development of novel, targeted therapies

DeepVariant : an analysis pipeline that uses a deep neural network to call genetic variants from next-generation DNA sequencing data.

Jit — Sat, 25 Jan 2020 13:28:09 -0600

DeepVariant is an analysis pipeline that uses a deep neural network to call genetic variants from next-generation DNA sequencing data.

DeepVariant is an analysis pipeline that uses a deep neural network to call genetic variants from next-generation DNA sequencing data. DeepVariant relies on Nucleus, a library of Python and C++ code for reading and writing data in common genomics file formats (like SAM and VCF) designed for painless integration with the TensorFlow machine learning framework.

Ktrim: an extra-fast and accurate adapter- and quality-trimmer for sequencing data

Jit — Thu, 11 Feb 2021 21:39:05 -0600

Ktrim is written in C++ for GNU Linux/Unix platforms. After uncompressing the source package, you can find an executable file ktrim under bin/ directory compiled using g++ v4.8.5 and linked with libz v1.2.7 for Linux x86_64 system. If you could not run it (which is usually caused by low version of libc++ or libz library) or you want to build a version optimized for your system, you can re-compile the programs:

user@linux$ make clean && make

SVEngine: Allele Specific and Haplotype Aware Structural Variants Simulator

Jit — Sat, 04 Jul 2020 05:52:34 -0500

SVEngine (Structural Variants Engine)

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.

Fix rewritable error of ELGG !

Abhi — Mon, 15 Nov 2021 06:23:46 -0600

The mod_rewrite module uses a rule-based rewriting engine, based on a PCRE regular-expression parser, to rewrite requested URLs on the fly. By default, mod_rewrite maps a URL to a filesystem path. However, it can also be used to redirect one URL to another URL, or to invoke an internal proxy fetch.

mod_rewrite provides a flexible and powerful way to manipulate URLs using an unlimited number of rules. Each rule can have an unlimited number of attached rule conditions, to allow you to rewrite URL based on server variables, environment variables, HTTP headers, or time stamps.

mod_rewrite operates on the full URL path, including the path-info section. A rewrite rule can be invoked in httpd.conf or in .htaccess. The path generated by a rewrite rule can include a query string, or can lead to internal sub-processing, external request redirection, or internal proxy throughput.

Further details, discussion, and examples, are provided in the detailed mod_rewrite documentation.
