yimingyu.shinyapps.io - shinyChromosome is a graphical user interface for interactive creation of non-circular whole genome diagrams developed using the R Shiny package. To create single-genome plot by aligning genome data along all chromosomes of a single genome, go to...

github.com - 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...

github.com - Often, genome assembly projects have illumina whole genome sequencing reads available for the assembled individual. The k-mer spectrum of this read set can be used for independently evaluating assembly quality without the need of a high quality...

github.com - Despite marked recent improvements in long-read sequencing technology, the assembly of diploid genomes remains a difficult task. A major obstacle is distinguishing between alternative contigs that represent highly heterozygous regions. If primary...

github.com - InfoGenomeR is the Integrative Framework for Genome Reconstruction that uses a breakpoint graph to model the connectivity among genomic segments at the genome-wide scale. InfoGenomeR integrates cancer purity and ploidy, total CNAs, allele-specific...

bioinfologics.github.io - What is a k-mer anyway? A k-mer is just a sequence of k characters in a string (or nucleotides in a DNA sequence). Now, it is important to remember that to get all k-mers from a sequence you need to get...

www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov - Install and use the NCBI Datasets command line tools The NCBI Datasets datasets command line tools are datasets and dataformat . Use datasets to download biological sequence data across all domains of life from...

www.weizmann.ac.il - Due to several requests, we are releasing an assingment of orthologs, determined using the same methods used in Hezroni et al. (BLAST, Whole Genome Alignment (WGA), and synteny). One is comparing human GENCODE genes (from GENCODE v30) to lncRNAs...

The Institute of Bioinformatics conducts internationally renowned research and provides profound education in bioinformatics. Its research focuses on development and application of machine learning and statistical methods in biology and...
