ShRec3D

Jitendra Narayan — Thu, 25 Dec 2014 23:14:52 -0600

ShRec3D is a program that aims at reconstructing a genome 3D structure (b) from the sole knowledge of the contacts between different genomic regions (a) as determined by Hi-C (http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/19815776).

There are two options to run ShRec3D (on linuX only so far): the first one uses the Matlab complier runtime environment (MCR), the second one doesn't need any other library to be installed but only works with the latest versions of Linux (equivalent to Fedora 19 and above).

Sequencing By Xpansion

Jitendra Narayan — Wed, 17 Jun 2015 20:58:11 -0500

Sequencing By Xpansion (SBX) is a DNA sequencing method that uses a simple biochemical reaction to encode the sequence of a DNA molecule into a highly measurable surrogate called an Xpandomer. This single molecule approach produces enough Xpandomer in a single drop reaction to sequence an entire human genome 1000X over. To achieve this, an Xpandomer replaces each DNA sequence with a sequence of large, high signal reporter molecules using the SBX molecular expansion technology. The DNA sequence is then read out as the Xpandomer reporters pass sequentially through a nanopore detector. SBX is a molecular engineering platform that benefits from core design principles that separate the multiple molecular functions. This systems approach enables efficient development and incorporation of improvements to SBX and is key to reconfiguring and optimizing Xpandomer measurement for different detection platforms.

Katju Lab

Fri, 26 Feb 2016 03:25:32 -0600

TheLab seek to understand the genetic factors contributing to genomic variation and phenotypic diversity. To this end, we employ molecular and bioinformatic tools to study evolutionary processes at the level of populations, both experimental and natural, and genomes. Our research interests encompass a wide range of topics, including the evolution of organellar and nuclear genomes, gene duplication and the origin of novel function, and the fitness and phenotypic consequences of mutation in evolution. For details regards ongoing projects, please see the Research page.

Genome Browser : GBrowse

Jit — Fri, 19 Feb 2016 09:22:43 -0600

Generic Genome Browser Version 2: A Tutorial for Administrators

This is an extensive tutorial to take you through the main features and gotchas of configuring GBrowse as a server. This tutorial assumes that you have successfully set up Perl, GD, BioPerl and the other GBrowse dependencies. If you haven't, please see the GBrowse HOWTO During most of the tutorial, we will be using the "in-memory" GBrowse database (no relational database required!) Later we will show how to set up a genome size database using the berkeleydb and MySQL adaptors.

RCircos: an R package for Circos 2D track plots

Jit — Fri, 20 May 2016 11:01:13 -0500

RCircos package provides a simple and flexible way to make Circos 2D track plots with R and could be easily integrated into other R data processing and graphic manipulation pipelines for presenting large-scale multi-sample genomic research data. It can also serve as a base tool to generate complex Circos images.

A5-miseq

Jit — Thu, 18 Aug 2016 04:05:23 -0500

_A5-miseq_ is a pipeline for assembling DNA sequence data generated on the Illumina sequencing platform. This README will take you through the steps necessary for running _A5-miseq_.

Point to note:

There are many situations where A5-miseq is not the right tool for the job. In order to produce accurate results, A5-miseq requires Illumina data with certain characteristics. A5-miseq will likely not work well with Illumina reads shorter than around 80nt, or reads where the base qualities are low in all or most reads before 60nt. A5-miseq assumes it is assembling homozygous haploid genomes. Use a different assembler for metagenomes and heterozygous diploid or polyploid organisms. Use a different assembler if a tool like FastQC reports your data quality is dubious. You have been warned! Datasets consisting solely of unpaired reads are not currently supported.

RepeatModeler

Jit — Thu, 18 Aug 2016 09:57:15 -0500

RepeatModeler is a de-novo repeat family identification and modeling package. At the heart of RepeatModeler are two de-novo repeat finding programs ( RECON and RepeatScout ) which employ complementary computational methods for identifying repeat element boundaries and family relationships from sequence data. RepeatModeler assists in automating the runs of RECON and RepeatScout given a genomic database and uses the output to build, refine and classify consensus models of putative interspersed repeats.
