Comparative Genomics Data Set Including 240 Mammals Released !

Jit — Thu, 19 Nov 2020 06:45:39 -0600

The genome of 130 mammals was sequenced by a large international consortium and the data was analyzed together with 110 existing genomes to allow scientists to identify the important positions in the DNA. This report, published in Nature today will help advance research on human disease mutations and inform how best to protect endangered species.

In addition to the knowledge of the human genome, all these genomes, widely sampled across mammals, can be used to research how particular organisms respond to different conditions. Some otters, for example, have a thick, water-resistant shell, and some rodents, but not all, have adapted to hibernation. These animal traits will help us to understand human traits, such as metabolic diseases.

With climate change and more animal ecosystems being threatened by human activity, the protection of endangered species is becoming increasingly important. Scientists have historically researched several people in various populations of a species to understand the genetic variation that occurs in that species. This is important for understanding how particular species can be protected. In this study, animals on the Red List of Endangered Species of the International Union for Conservation of Nature had fewer differences in their genomes, which is consistent with their endangered status.

Postdoc in Comparative Single Cell Genomics at University of Basel

Fri, 06 Dec 2024 23:41:20 -0600

A fully funded 4-year Postdoc position is available in the lab of Patrick
Tschopp at the University of Basel, Switzerland, study the molecular and
tissue-scale dynamics during the embryonic formation of the vertebrate
skeleton and compare it across different vertebrate species with distinct
habitats.

We are looking for a highly motivated candidate with a PhD degree in
Bioinformatics or a related field. Candidates are expected to have a
strong background in evolutionary biology and/or comparative functional
genomics. Additional experiences in single cell functional genomics
analyses, statistics and computational data analyses are a plus, as is
an interest in comparative developmental (EvoDevo) questions.

We offer a dynamic and interactive research environment with state-of-the
art research facilities, good research funding and internationally
competitive salaries.

The Tschopp lab (www.evolution.unibas.ch/tschopp/research/)
studies the gene regulatory mechanisms of cell type
specification and evolution in vertebrates. See also our
preprints at https://doi.org/10.1101/2024.03.26.586769 and
https://doi.org/10.1101/2024.11.28.625862 Applications should include
a motivation letter, a CV, a list of publications, a statement about
research interests, as well as the names and contact details of at
least two referees. Applications (in the form of a single .pdf file)
should be sent to Patrick Tschopp (patrick.tschopp@unibas.ch); review
of applications will begin on January 1st 2025, and will continue until
the position is filled.

MGcV: the microbial genomic context viewer for comparative genome analysis

Jit — Mon, 29 Jan 2018 04:55:46 -0600

MGcV is an interactive web-based visalization tool tailored to facilitate small scale genome analysis. To start using MGcV:

Supply your genes/genomic segments/phylogenetic tree of interest in the input-box by
- selecting the type of identifier and pasting identifiers (one per line)
- or by using the gene ID search tool
- or with the BLAST search tool
Click "Visualize context".

Consult the documentation to learn more about MGcV.

gggenomes: A grammar of graphics for comparative genomics

Surabhi Chaudhary — Mon, 01 Feb 2021 14:47:32 -0600

gggenomes is a versatile graphics package for comparative genomics. It extends the popular R visualization packageggplot2 by adding dedicated plot functions for genes, syntenic regions, etc. and verbs to manipulate the plot to, for example, quickly zoom in into gene neighborhoods.

JBrowse: Embeddable genome browser built completely with JavaScript and HTML5

Jit — Fri, 29 Jun 2018 09:19:56 -0500

JBrowse is a fast, embeddable genome browser built completely with JavaScript and HTML5, with optional run-once data formatting tools written in Perl. Headline Features: Fast, smooth scrolling and zooming. Explore your genome with unparalleled speed. Scales easily to multi-gigabase genomes and deep-coverage sequencing. Quickly open and view data files on your computer without uploading them to any server. Supports GFF3, BED, FASTA, Wiggle, BigWig, BAM, VCF (with either .tbi or .idx index), REST, and more. BAM, BigBed, BigWig, and VCF data are displayed directly from chunks of the compressed binary files, no conversion needed. Includes an optional “faceted” track selector (see demo) suitable for large installations with thousands of tracks. Very light server resource requirements. In fact, JBrowse has no back-end server code, just tools for formatting data files to be read directly over HTTP. Serve huge datasets from a single low-cost cloud instance. Can run as a stand-alone app on OSX and Windows using the Electron platform Highly extensible plugin architecture, with a large plugin registry of existing examples here https://gmod.github.io/jbrowse-registry https://jbrowse.org/

Long read assembly workshop !

Rahul Nayak — Thu, 04 Oct 2018 17:23:18 -0500

This is a tutorial for a workshop on long-read (PacBio) genome assembly.

It demonstrates how to use long PacBio sequencing reads to assemble a bacterial genome, and includes additional steps for circularising, trimming, finding plasmids, and correcting the assembly with short-read Illumina data.

Please comment if you know any other long read addembly tutorial.
