Liver cancer is third leading cause of deaths and fourth most frequent occuring cancer worldwide. There are multiple signaling pathways responsible for causing cancer amongst which TGFb is most important cytokine whose signaling pathway promote...
www.nature.com - Second generation sequencing has revolutionized genomic studies. However, most genomes contain repeated DNA elements that are longer than the read lengths achievable with typical sequencers, so the genomic order of several generated contigs cannot...
Live Webinar on RNA-Seq Data Analysis
Abstract: Strand NGS supports an extensive workflow for the analysis and visualization of RNA-Seq data. The workflow includes Transcriptome / Genome alignment, Differential expression analysis with Statistical...
sourceforge.net - Grinder is a versatile program to create random shotgun and amplicon sequence libraries based on DNA, RNA or proteic reference sequences provided in a FASTA file.
Grinder can produce genomic, metagenomic, transcriptomic, metatranscriptomic,...
github.com - Jabba is a hybrid error correction tool to correct third generation (PacBio / ONT) sequencing data, using second generation (Illumina) data.
Input
Jabba takes as input a concatenated de Bruijn graph and a set of sequences:
the de Bruijn graph...
github.com - Key features
Filters SNVs from any variant caller to remove false positives
Calculates metrics based on BAM files and provides filtering not possible with other tools
Fully user-configurable filtering (including which filters to use and their...
Many times bioinformatician needs to parse binary files like bam and sff. Advantage of binary files is that they occupy less space in memory with maximum information content.
Link for those who looking for structure of Bam and sff...
With the help of Moleculo technology , acquired by Illumina releases new service for long reads sequencing i.e., FastTrack Long Reads.
Average read length is around 8,500 base pairs in release dataset. Best thing about this, there...
