Roary: the Pan Genome Pipeline

Jit — Tue, 22 Jan 2019 05:52:07 -0600

Roary is a high speed stand alone pan genome pipeline, which takes annotated assemblies in GFF3 format (produced by Prokka (Seemann, 2014)) and calculates the pan genome. Using a standard desktop PC, it can analyse datasets with thousands of samples, something which is computationally infeasible with existing methods, without compromising the quality of the results. 128 samples can be analysed in under 1 hour using 1 GB of RAM and a single processor. To perform this analysis using existing methods would take weeks and hundreds of GB of RAM. Roary is not intended for meta-genomics or for comparing extremely diverse sets of genomes.

Bactopia: a Flexible Pipeline for Complete Analysis of Bacterial Genomes

Abhi — Wed, 15 May 2024 14:36:12 -0500

Bactopia is a flexible pipeline for complete analysis of bacterial genomes. The goal of Bactopia is to process your data with a broad set of tools, so that you can get to the fun part of analyses quicker!

Bactopia can be split into two main parts: Bactopia Analysis Pipeline, and Bactopia Tools.

Bactopia Analysis Pipeline is the main per-isolate workflow in Bactopia. Built with Nextflow, input FASTQs (local or available from SRA/ENA) are put through numerous analyses including: quality control, assembly, annotation, minmer sketch queries, sequence typing, and more.

Bactopia Tools are a set a independent workflows fo

Bioinformatician in pipeline development

Tue, 17 Dec 2024 23:43:54 -0600

Are you interested in working with pipeline development in bioinformatics, with the support of competent and friendly colleagues in an international environment? Are you looking for an employer that invests in sustainable employeeship and offers safe, favourable working conditions? We welcome you to apply for a position as Bioinformatician in pipeline development at Uppsala University.

National Bioinformatics Infrastructure Sweden (NBIS) (nbis.se) plays an important role in advancing life science research in Sweden by providing expert support and developing cutting-edge bioinformatics infrastructure. Operating as a truly national initiative, NBIS employs more than 120 bioinformaticians, system developers, and data stewards across multiple locations in Sweden. It serves as the bioinformatics platform at SciLifeLab, a national resource that facilitates research in molecular biosciences by offering access to state-of-the-art technologies and technical expertise. With strong ties to data-producing facilities and ongoing collaborations with leading research groups, NBIS is ideally positioned to support world-class bioinformatics analyses. Furthermore, NBIS is the Swedish node in ELIXIR, the European infrastructure for biological information.

NBIS is seeking an experienced bioinformatician to support both Swedish and international projects. As part of our dynamic team, you will work closely with researchers to process large-scale biological data and contribute to advancing our data analysis infrastructure. Strong problem-solving skills, attention to detail, and the ability to troubleshoot complex bioinformatics pipelines are essential for success in this role. Flexibility and a willingness to learn are also important, as NBIS continually adapts to meet the evolving needs of the Swedish research community.

DFAST: a flexible prokaryotic genome annotation pipeline for faster genome publication

Jit — Tue, 14 Nov 2017 10:26:16 -0600

We developed a prokaryotic genome annotation pipeline, DFAST, that also supports genome submission to public sequence databases. DFAST was originally started as an on-line annotation server, and to date, over 7,000 jobs have been processed since its first launch in 2016. Here, we present a newly implemented background annotation engine for DFAST, which is also available as a standalone command-line program. The new engine can annotate a typical-sized bacterial genome within 10 minutes, with rich information such as pseudogenes, translation exceptions, and orthologous gene assignment between given reference genomes. In addition, the modular framework of DFAST allows users to customize the annotation workflow easily and will also facilitate extensions for new functions and incorporation of new tools in the future.

Availability and Implementation

The software is implemented in Python 3 and runs in both Python 2.7 and 3.4– on Macintosh and Linux systems. It is freely available at https://github.com/nigyta/dfast_core/ under the GPLv3 license with external binaries bundled in the software distribution. An on-line version is also available at https://dfast.nig.ac.jp/.

3d-dna: 3D de novo assembly (3D DNA) pipeline

Jit — Thu, 28 Dec 2017 10:09:37 -0600

This code is designed to enable anyone to reproduce the Hs2-HiC and the AaegL4 genomes reported in: Dudchenko et al., De novo assembly of the Aedes aegypti genome using Hi-C yields chromosome-length scaffolds. Science, 2017.

Unless otherwise noted, all terminology below is consistent with this paper, and all references to figures and tables in this readme refer to this paper. Specifically, some of the terminology used below is outlined in Figure S2. The assembly procedure is described in detail in the Supporting Online Materials, specifically in the section labelled “Pipeline description”.

In addition, the pipeline uses tools and methods from Juicer (Durand & Shamim et al., Cell Systems, 2016) and Juicebox (Durand & Robinson et al., Cell Systems, 2016), as well as additional dependencies noted below.

HaploTypo: a variant-calling pipeline for phased genomes

Jit — Thu, 19 Dec 2019 07:33:40 -0600

An increasing number of phased (i.e. with resolved haplotypes) reference genomes are available. However, most genetic variant calling tools do not explicitly account for haplotype structure. Here, we present HaploTypo, a pipeline tailored to resolve haplotypes in genetic variation analyses. HaploTypo infers the haplotype correspondence for each heterozygous variant called on a phased reference genome.

Availability and Implementation

HaploTypo is implemented in Python 2.7 and Python 3.5, and is freely available at https://github.com/gabaldonlab/haplotypo, and as a Docker image.

PyParanoid: a pipeline for rapid identification of homologous gene families in a set of genomes

BioStar — Thu, 13 Aug 2020 10:06:19 -0500

PyParanoid is a pipeline for rapid identification of homologous gene families in a set of genomes - a central task of any comparative genomics analysis. The "gold standard" for identifying homologs is to use reciprocal best hits (RBHs) which depends on performing a all-vs-all sequence comparison, usually using BLAST, to determine homology. However, these methods are computationally expensive, requiring O(n2) resources to identify RBHs. This is problematic, as the modern deluge of sequencing data means that comparative genomics analyses could be performed on datasets of thousands of strains.
