CRBHits: From Conditional Reciprocal Best Hits to Codon Alignments and Ka/Ks in R

Shruti Paniwala — Wed, 11 Nov 2020 23:06:03 -0600

CRBHits is a coding sequence (CDS) analysis pipeline in R (R Core Team, 2019). It reimplements the Conditional Reciprocal Best Hit (CRBH) algorithm crb-blast and covers all necessary steps from sequence similarity searches, codon alignments to Ka/Ks calculations and synteny. The new R package targets ecology, population and evolutionary biologists working in the field of comparative genomics.

R-chie

Jit — Thu, 01 Sep 2016 11:47:24 -0500

R-chie allows you to make arc diagrams of RNA secondary structures, allowing for easy comparison and overlap of two structures, rank and display basepairs in colour and to also visualize corresponding multiple sequence alignments and co-variation information.
R4RNA is the R package powering R-chie, available for download and local use for more customized figures and scripting.

maftools : Summarize, Analyze and Visualize MAF Files

Neel — Wed, 23 Dec 2020 05:29:33 -0600

With advances in Cancer Genomics, Mutation Annotation Format (MAF) is being widely accepted and used to store somatic variants detected. The Cancer Genome Atlas Project has sequenced over 30 different cancers with sample size of each cancer type being over 200. Resulting data consisting of somatic variants are stored in the form of Mutation Annotation Format. This package attempts to summarize, analyze, annotate and visualize MAF files in an efficient manner from either TCGA sources or any in-house studies as long as the data is in MAF format.

MAJIQ 2 is released !

LEGE — Thu, 09 Jul 2020 03:06:26 -0500

Ability to detect, quantify, and visualize complex and de-novo splicing variations from RNASeq.

MAJIQ’s accuracy compares favorably to other algorithms.

MAJIQ 2 is *way* faster, more memory and I/O efficient

New visualization (VOILA 2.0) Ability to analyze hundreds and thousands of samples Why so negative? (Support for a confident negative set)

Finally, a major reason we are excited about MAJIQ 2.0 is that it sets the code base for many new exciting algorithmic and visualization improvements, with application to new research questions so stay tuned!

Webinar: Wednesday 21 August 2013 at Noon EDT

Jitendra Narayan — Sun, 11 Aug 2013 19:31:56 -0500

This webinar will describe the use of combinatorial pooling to reconstruct gene sequences within BACs. Recent work in barley has shown that this level of sequence knowledge is sufficient to support critical end-point objectives such as map-based cloning and marker-assisted breeding.

Genome Stability Laboratory

Mon, 07 Mar 2016 04:16:32 -0600

The bakers yeast, Saccharomyces cerevisiae is an ideal model organism to understand mechanisms of meiotic chromosome segregation. In S. cerevisiae and in mammals, the majority of meiotic crossovers are formed through a highly conserved MSH4p-MSH5p, MLH1p-MLH3p dependent pathway. We are interested in charactering the role of these complexes in crossover formation and distribution among all homolog pairs. Errors in this process are linked to congenital birth defects in humans such as Down's syndrome.Our laboratory is also interested in understanding the effect of genetic background on mutation rate variation using S. cerevisiae as a model. These studies are relevant for understanding cancer progression, genome evolution and architecture. We use high- throughput genomic methods as well as classical genetics to achieve these aims.
