GraphUnzip: Phases an assembly graph using Hi-C data and/or long reads.

Jit — Fri, 05 Feb 2021 21:22:24 -0600

GraphUnzip, a fast, memory-efficient and accurate tool to unzip assembly graphs into their constituent haplotypes using long reads and/or Hi-C data. As GraphUnzip only connects sequences in the assembly graph that already had a potential link based on overlaps, it yields high-quality gap-less supercontigs. To demonstrate the efficiency of GraphUnzip, we tested it on a simulated diploid Escherichia coli genome, and on two real datasets for the genomes of the rotifer Adineta vaga and the potato Solanum tuberosum. In all cases, GraphUnzip yielded highly continuous phased assemblies.

LoReTTA, a user-friendly tool for assembling viral genomes from PacBio sequence data

Neel — Wed, 23 Jun 2021 07:54:53 -0500

LoReTTA (Long Read Template-Targeted Assembler), a tool designed for performing de novo assembly of long reads generated from viral genomes on the PacBio platform. LoReTTA exploits a reference genome to guide the assembly process, an approach that has been successful with short reads.

LACHESIS: Genome Assembly with Hi-C-based Contact Probability Maps (LACHESIS)

Jit — Mon, 14 May 2018 04:26:30 -0500

LACHESIS is method that exploits contact probability map data (e.g. from Hi-C) for chromosome-scale de novo genome assembly.

Further information about LACHESIS, including source code, documentation and a user's guide are available at: http://shendurelab.github.io/LACHESIS.

Manuscript describing LACHESIS was published as: Burton JN#, Adey A, Patwardhan RP, Qiu R, Kitzman JO, Shendure J#. Chromosome-scale scaffolding of de novo genome assemblies based on chromatin interactions. Nature Biotechnology 2013 Dec;31(12):1119-25. doi: 10.1038/nbt.272. PubMed PMID: 24185095.

Ranbow: a haplotype assembler for polyploid genomes

Jit — Fri, 01 Jun 2018 07:21:54 -0500

Ranbow is a haplotype assembler for polyploid genomes. It has been developed for the haplotype assembly of the hexaploid sweet potato genome, which is highly heterozygous. Ranbow can also be applied to other polyploid genomes. After a first phasing, Ranbow utilizes the assembled haplotypes to improve the accuracy of variant calling results and to infer the evolutionary history of the organism´s genome. Ranbow has three main modes of function: ranbow hap: for haplotyping ranbow eval: for evaluating of the assemble haplotypes by gold standard (long) reads ranbow phylo: for the phylogenetic analysis

3D Genome Browser: explore chromatin interaction data, such as Hi-C, ChIA-PET, Capture Hi-C, PLAC-Seq, and more

BioStar — Fri, 22 Jan 2021 20:19:32 -0600

Beside visualizing chromatin interaction data, you can also seamlessly browse other omics data such as ChIP-Seq or RNA-Seq for the same genomic region, and gain a complete view of both regulatory landscape and 3D genome structure for any given gene. You can also check the expression of any queried gene across hundreds of tissue/cell types measured by the ENCODE consortium. Finally, please check out the virtual 4C page, where we provide multiple methods to link distal cis-regulatory elements with their potential target genes, including virtual 4C, ChIA-PET and cross-cell-type correlation of proximal and distal DHSs.

DeepHiC: A Generative Adversarial Network for Enhancing Hi-C Data Resolution

Rahul Nayak — Tue, 03 Mar 2020 01:12:47 -0600

DeepHiC is a GAN-based model for enhancing Hi-C data resolution. We developed this server for helping researchers to enhance their own low-resolution data by a few steps of clicks. Ab initio training could be performed according to our published code. We provided trained models for various depth of low-coverage sequencing Hi-C data. The depth of input data is estimated by its distribution comparing with those of the downsampled Hi-C data we used in training

homologizer: Phylogenetic phasing of gene copies into polyploid subgenomes

Abhi — Sat, 03 Jun 2023 19:19:10 -0500

This tutorial describes the usage of homologizer to phase gene copies into polyploid subgenomes. The tutorial is an abbreviated version of a soon-to-be published paper in Methods in Molecular Biology. Please see that paper for many more details and practical considerations for running homologizer analyses. If you use homologizer, please cite the paper in which we first describe the method:

RefKA: A fast and efficient long-read genome assembly approach for large and complex genomes

Rahul Nayak — Fri, 01 May 2020 03:00:40 -0500

RefKA, a reference-based approach for long read genome assembly. This approach relies on breaking up a closely related reference genome into bins, aligning k-mers unique to each bin with PacBio reads, and then assembling each bin in parallel followed by a final bin-stitching step.
