New born babies get ready to know their whole genome soon!!!

Rahul Agarwal — Thu, 05 Sep 2013 07:24:02 -0500

USA launch a pilot projects to examine medical information of newborn baby, which are being funded by the Eunice Kennedy Shriver National Institute of Child Health and Human Development (NICHD) and the National Human Genome Research Institute (NHGRI), both parts of the National Institutes of Health.

Awards of $5 million to four grantees have been made in fiscal year 2013 under the Genomic Sequencing and Newborn Screening Disorders research program. The program will be funded at $25 million over five years, as funds are made available.

"Hundreds of US babies will be pioneers in genomic medicine through a US$25-million programme to sequence their genomes soon after they are born."

LR_Gapcloser: a tiling path-based gap closer that uses long reads to complete genome assembly

Rahul Nayak — Thu, 14 May 2020 15:09:52 -0500

LR_Gapcloser is a gap closing tool using long reads from studied species. The long reads could be downloaed from public read archive database (for instance, NCBI SRA database ) or be your own data. Then they are fragmented and aligned to scaffolds using BWA mem algorithm in BWA package. In the package, we provided a compiled bwa, so the user needn't to install bwa. LR_Gapcloser uses the alignments to find the bridging that cross the gap, and then fills the long read original sequence into the genomic gaps.

swgis v2.0 : a seqword genomic island sniffer

Abhimanyu Singh — Thu, 01 Nov 2018 12:35:52 -0500

swgis v2.0 is the modified version of the seqword genomic island sniffer. this version is specifically optimized for predicting genomic islands in eukaryotic genomes. swgis v2.0 was tested on several eukaryotic species of different lineages. all identified genomic islands were deposited in the eugi database.

KAD: Assessing genome assemblies using K-mer copies in assemblies and K-mer abundance in Illumina reads

Jit — Fri, 19 Jun 2020 07:34:12 -0500

KAD is designed for evaluating the accuracy of nucleotide base quality of genome assemblies. Briefly, abundance of k-mers are quantified for both sequencing reads and assembly sequences. Comparison of the two values results in a single value per k-mer, K-mer Abundance Difference (KAD), which indicates how well the assembly matches read data for each k-mer.

where, c is the count of a k-mer from reads, m is the mode of counts of read k-mers, and n is the copy of the k-mer in the assembly.

Smudgeplot: Inference of ploidy and heterozygosity structure using whole genome sequencing data

Neel — Fri, 25 Feb 2022 04:42:09 -0600

This tool extracts heterozygous kmer pairs from kmer count databases and performs gymnastics with them. We are able to disentangle genome structure by comparing the sum of kmer pair coverages (CovA + CovB) to their relative coverage (CovB / (CovA + CovB)). Such an approach also allows us to analyze obscure genomes with duplications, various ploidy levels, etc.

Smudgeplots are computed from raw or even better from trimmed reads and show the haplotype structure using heterozygous kmer pairs. For example:

How to sequence the human genome - Mark J. Kiel

Fri, 30 May 2014 13:24:11 -0500

View full lesson: http://ed.ted.com/lessons/how-to-sequence-the-human-genome-mark-j-kiel Your genome, every human's genome, consists of a unique DNA sequence of A's, T's, C's and G's that tell your cells how to operate. Thanks to technological advances, scientists are now able to know the sequence of letters that makes up an individual genome relatively quickly and inexpensively. Mark J. Kiel takes an in-depth look at the science behind the sequence. Lesson by Mark J. Kiel, animation by Marc Christoforidis.

BIMA V3: an aligner customized for mate pair library sequencing

Abhimanyu Singh — Wed, 14 Dec 2016 15:20:00 -0600

Summary: Mate pair library sequencing is an effective and economical method for detecting genomic structural variants and chromosomal abnormalities. Unfortunately, the mapping and alignment of mate pair read pairs to a reference genome is a challenging and
time consuming process for most NGS alignment programs. Large insert sizes, introduction of library preparation protocol artifacts (biotin junction reads, paired-end read contamination, chimeras, etc.), and presence of structural variant breakpoints within reads increases mapping and alignment complexity. We describe an algorithm that is up to 20 times faster and 25% more accurate than popular NGS alignment programs when processing mate pair sequencing.

splitbam: splits a BAM by chromosomes

Jit — Tue, 28 Feb 2017 09:01:28 -0600

splitbam splits a BAM by chromosomes.

Using the reference sequence dictionary (*.dict), it also creates some empty BAM files if no sam record was found for a chromosome. A pair of 'mock' SAM-Records can also be added to those empty BAMs to avoid some tools (like samtools) to crash.

Usage

java -jar splitbam.jar -p OUT/__CHROM__/__CHROM__.bam -R ref.fasta (bam|sam|stdin)

Options

-h help; This screen.
-R (indexed reference file) REQUIRED.
-u (unmapped chromosome name): default:Unmapped
-e | --empty : generate EMPTY bams for chromosome having no read mapped
-m | --mock : if option '-e', add a mock pair of sam records to the empty bam
-p (output file/bam pattern) REQUIRED. MUST contain __CHROM__ and end with .bam
-s assume input is sorted.
-x | --index create index.
-t | --tmp (dir) tmp file directory
-G (file) chrom-group file (see below)
