Google Genomics

Reshma Khatun — Fri, 17 Oct 2014 02:14:14 -0500

Google Genomics provides an API to store, process, explore, and share DNA sequence reads, reference-based alignments, and variant calls, using Google's cloud infrastructure.

Store alignments and variant calls for one genome or a million.
Process genomic data in batch by running principal component analysis or Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium, in minutes or hours, by using parallel computing frameworks like MapReduce.
Explore data by slicing alignments and variants by genomic range across one or multiple samples -- for your own algorithms or for visualization; or interactively process entire cohorts to find transition/transversion ratios, allelic frequency, genome-wide association and more using BigQuery.
Share genomic data with your research group, collaborators, the broader community, or the public. You decide.

Google Genomics is implementing the API defined by the Global Alliance for Genomics and Health for visualization, analysis and more. Compliant software can access Google Genomics, local servers, or any other implementation.

Blast on Docker, Google Cloud, Amazon Cloud

LEGE — Thu, 09 Jul 2020 02:57:11 -0500

As announced in a previous post, we offer a Docker version of NCBI BLAST+ that you can use locally or on the Google Cloud where we have pre-loaded BLAST databases. We are happy to announce that the same functionality is now available on the Amazon Cloud. In addition, we now offer 23 different BLAST databases on each cloud platform.

As mentioned before, working with BLAST+ in Docker and the cloud has several advantages:

Docker manages installation and maintenance of the BLAST programs and databases.
Docker makes it is easier to integrate BLAST with other tools in your pipelines.
NCBI BLAST databases are pre-loaded now on the both the Google Cloud and Amazon Cloud, providing fast access.

You can also use the BLAST+ Docker image on any Docker-enabled platform, such as another cloud platform or on your local computer.

See the BLAST+ in the Cloud and database information documentation to get started.

If you have any questions, please email us at blast-help@ncbi.nlm.nih.gov

Big genomic data on Google Cloud Platform

Fri, 17 Oct 2014 02:16:00 -0500

As the cost of DNA sequencing has dropped, the volume of data produced has risen into the petabytes. Google is working with the genomics community to define a standard API for working with big genomic data sets in the cloud. Building on Google Cloud Platform, we show how to store, process, explore and share genomic data using technologies like BigQuery, AppEngine MapReduce, R and more.

Explore genetic variation interactively. Compare entire cohorts in seconds with SQL-like queries. Compute transition/transversion ratios, genome-wide association, allelic frequency and more.
Process big genomic data easily. Run batch analyses like principal component analysis and Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium on as many samples as you like, in minutes or hours, with just a little code.
Use Google's infrastructure and big data expertise. Store one genome or a million using Google Genomics and take advantage of the same infrastructure that powers Search, Maps, YouTube, Gmail and Drive.
Support emerging global standards. Google Genomics is implementing the API defined by the Global Alliance for Genomics and Health for visualization, analysis and more. Compliant software can access Google Genomics, local servers, or any other implementation.

BamView: a free interactive display of read alignments in BAM data files

Neel — Fri, 09 Nov 2018 13:43:22 -0600

To run the application on UNIX from the downloaded jar file run the UNIX:

java -mx512m -jar BamView.jar

and extra command line options are given when '-h' is used:

java -jar BamView.jar -h

BAM files can be specified on the command line with the '-a' option:

java -mx512m -jar BamView.jar -a pathToFile/sorted.bam

If a BAM filename is not given on the command line BamView will prompt for a file to be entered. The BAM index file should have the same name as the BAM file but with a '.bai' suffix. Multiple BAM files can be loaded and overlaid in the viewer. To make this easier BamView will read in files that contain a list of filenames.

PANNZER: a fully automated service for functional annotation of prokaryotic and eukaryotic proteins of unknown function.

BioStar — Thu, 13 Aug 2020 09:57:24 -0500

PANNZER (Protein ANNotation with Z-scoRE) is a fully automated service for functional annotation of prokaryotic and eukaryotic proteins of unknown function.

PANNZER (Protein ANNotation with Z-scoRE) is a fully automated service for functional annotation of prokaryotic and eukaryotic proteins of unknown function. The tool is designed to predict the functional description (DE) and GO classes.

PANNZER2 processes bacterial proteomes in minutes and eukaryotic proteomes in an hour. You can use AAI-profiler to summarize a proteome's species neighbors and reveal taxonomic identity or contamination.
