CrocoBLAST: Optimized parallel implementation of local sequence alignment algorithms

Jit — Tue, 25 Jul 2017 05:03:10 -0500

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.

Ancestral sequence reconstruction steps !

Surabhi Chaudhary — Fri, 18 May 2018 08:28:26 -0500

Ancestral sequence reconstruction (ASR) – also known as ancestral gene/sequence reconstruction/resurrection – is a technique used in the study of molecular evolution. The method consists of the synthesis of an ancestral gene and expression of the corresponding ancestral protein. The idea of protein 'resurrection' was suggested in 1963 by Pauling and Zuckerkandl. Some early efforts were made in the eighties-nineties, led by the laboratory of Steven A. Benner, showing the potential of this technique – one that only started to be fulfilled in the post-genomic era. Thanks to the improvement of algorithms and of better sequencing and synthesis techniques, the method was developed further in the early 2000s to allow the resurrection of a greater variety of and much more ancient genes. Over the last decade, ancestral protein resurrection has developed as a strategy to reveal the mechanisms and dynamics of protein evolution.

BEAST is the best way to predict the ancestral structure. but, I suggest following steps?

1- Alignments "Mafft - http://mafft.cbrc.jp/alignment/software/source.html"

mafft --maxiterate 1000 --reorder --thread 24 --genafpair Dataset.fasta > Dataset_Alig.fasta

2- Your dataset has a good phylogenetic signal, is possible to perform with Tree-Puzzle "http://www.tree-puzzle.de";

3 - This dataset which the saturation index, I perform with "http://dambe.bio.uottawa.ca/dambe.asp";

4- Has evidence of possible recombination in your dataset, the evaluate if this presence or absence, because this may to influence the grouping of clades, I perform with

---recombination

4.1- Phi-test, implemented in SplitTree4"http://www.splitstree.org", (.nex file)

4.2- GARD deployed in webserver in the DataMonkey "http://www.datamonkey.org/" - turning to the amino acid seaview -> view proteins -> save as ...) Ideally do a tree-based groups.

4.3- RDP4 for download and installation on Windows in "http://web.cbio.uct.ac.za/~darren/rdp.html"

4.4- Hyphy (Mac, Windows, Linux) in "http://hyphy.org/w/index.php/Download"

4.5- Path-o-Gen (temporal structure of a tree input file -> arquivo.tre)

These steps above, I call of pre-processing to inferences phylogenetic...

5- Perform phylogenetic tree, used Bayesian Inference with Molecular Clock, but is necessary Clock Testing:

- This step is performed with program Beast (Beauti, Beast and TreeAnnotator), and Tracer_v1.5 more FigTree to inspection.

Wtdbg2: a de novo sequence assembler for long noisy reads produced by PacBio or Oxford Nanopore

Neel — Fri, 19 Oct 2018 08:48:43 -0500

Wtdbg2 is a de novo sequence assembler for long noisy reads produced by PacBio or Oxford Nanopore Technologies (ONT). It assembles raw reads without error correction and then builds the consensus from intermediate assembly output. Wtdbg2 is able to assemble the human and even the 32Gb Axolotl genome at a speed tens of times faster than CANU and FALCONwhile producing contigs of comparable base accuracy.

RePS: Repeat-masked Phrap with scaffolding, a WGS sequence assembler

Jit — Sat, 04 Jan 2020 01:08:09 -0600

RePS (Repeat-masked Phrap with scaffolding), a WGS sequence assembler, that explicitly identifies exact kmer repeats from the shotgun data and removes them prior to the assembly. The established software Phrap is used to compute meaningful error probabilities for each base. Clone-end-pairing information is used to construct scaffolds that order and orient the contigs. The updated version of RePS incorporates some of the ideas introduced by Phusion on clustering

LoFreq*: A sequence-quality aware, ultra-sensitive variant caller for NGS data

BioStar — Tue, 18 Feb 2020 03:24:22 -0600

LoFreq* (i.e. LoFreq version 2) is a fast and sensitive variant-caller for inferring SNVs and indels from next-generation sequencing data. It makes full use of base-call qualities and other sources of errors inherent in sequencing (e.g. mapping or base/indel alignment uncertainty), which are usually ignored by other methods or only used for filtering.
