Please read carefully the Preface (page 3) and the File of annotated genomes section (pages 9-10) in the version 3.1 User Guide. Thanks to Tom Slezak for revsing the get_genbank_file3 script and to Tod Stuber (USDA) for testing version 3.1 even though he doesn't need the annotation feature. All users are encouraged to upgrade to version 3.1.&nbsp;<br></span></p><p>Address of the bookmark: <a href="https://sourceforge.net/projects/ksnp/files/" rel="nofollow">https://sourceforge.net/projects/ksnp/files/</a></p>]]></description>

	<description><![CDATA[<p><span>A new approach to rapid, genome-wide identification and ranking of horizontal transfer candidate proteins is presented. The method is quantitative, reproducible, and computationally undemanding. It can be combined with genomic signature and/or phylogenetic tree-building procedures to improve accuracy and efficiency. The method is also useful for retrospective assessments of horizontal transfer prediction reliability, recognizing orthologous sequences that may have been previously overlooked or unavailable. These features are demonstrated in bacterial, archaeal, and eukaryotic examples.</span></p><p>Address of the bookmark: <a href="https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC1852411/" rel="nofollow">https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC1852411/</a></p>]]></description>

	<title><![CDATA[CrocoBLAST: Optimized parallel implementation of local sequence alignment algorithms]]></title>
	<description><![CDATA[<p><span>Local sequence alignment is a cornerstone of bioinformatics, allowing to compare the amino-acid sequences of different proteins, or the nucleotide sequences of different pieces of DNA. The Basic Local Alignment Search Tool (BLAST) has revolutionized the field of bioinformatics, and is currently implemented in all free and commercial bioinformatics packages. However, with the advent of Next Generation Sequencing (NGS) and the development of new sequencing techniques, the utility of traditional BLAST implementations is limited. CrocoBLAST combines the accuracy and general applicability of BLAST with computational efficiency, accessibility, and user experience, so that NGS data can be analyzed efficiently even when only modest computational resources are available.</span></p>

	<title><![CDATA[Scalpel]]></title>
	<description><![CDATA[<p>A team from Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory has released an algorithm, called Scalpel, for finding insertions and deletions in next generation sequencing data sets. Scalpel, which is open source and <a href="http://scalpel.sourceforge.net/" title="available for download">available for download</a> on SourceForge,&nbsp;<span>outperformed the popular tools GATK HaplotypeCaller and SOAPindel in test runs on both simulated and real whole human exomes.</span></p><p>Like other indel callers, Scalpel works by performing <em>de novo</em>&nbsp;assembly of regions of interest, so that misalignment to the reference genome cannot obscure the presence of an insertion or deletion. Scalpel's innovation is to repeatedly check its assembly before comparing to the reference genome, to account for simple sequence repeats that are a regular source of error in indel calling. When Scalpel assembles an exon, it collects reads that map to that exon (including partial matches), splits them into k-mers, and creates a de Bruijn graph to span the exon; however, if it detects repeats in the map, it iteratively increases the size of the k-mers by one base until the repeats are eliminated. This ensures that the final assembly of the exon is highly accurate while minimizing compute time.</p><p>The Cold Spring Harbor team's validation of Scalpel, <a href="http://www.nature.com/nmeth/journal/vaop/ncurrent/full/nmeth.3069.html" title="published over the weekend in Nature Methods">published over the weekend in <em>Nature Methods</em></a>, compares Scalpel's performance on a live whole exome against HaplotypeCaller and SOAPindel. The donor is an individual with serious neurological disorders, which may be linked to a high incidence of indels. One thousand indels from this individual's exome, called by one or more of the informatics pipelines, were selected for focused resequencing. This resequencing revealed a 77% true positive rate for Scalpel calls, dramatically better than the rates for either of the competing tools; Scalpel performed especially well with indels longer than five base pairs, a traditional weak point for indel callers.</p><p>Finally, the authors demonstrate Scalpel's use on a large set of genetic data from nearly 600 families who donated samples to the Simons Simplex Collection, a project of the Simons Foundation Autism Research Initiative. Scalpel found a very high enrichment for indels in children affected by autism, compared with their unaffected siblings, a pattern that persisted even after excluding common variants.</p>]]></description>
