By "cohort" we mean samples sequenced with the same enrichment kit with approximately the same depth (ie 1x WGS and 30x WGS better be analysed in separate runs of ClinCNV). Of course it is better if your samples were sequenced within the same sequencing facility.</span></p><p>Address of the bookmark: <a href="https://github.com/imgag/ClinCNV" rel="nofollow">https://github.com/imgag/ClinCNV</a></p>]]></description>

	<title><![CDATA[The Hidden Pages of Our DNA]]></title>
	<description><![CDATA[<p>Imagine opening the instruction manual for life.</p><p>It is enormous, billions of letters long. Some of those letters are easy to understand because they contain instructions for building proteins, the tiny machines that keep our cells alive.</p><p>But what if some of the most important instructions aren't in those obvious chapters?</p><p>Scientists have long suspected that the mysterious stretches of DNA between protein-coding genes may contain some of life's most interesting secrets. These regions can act like switches, telling genes when, where, and how strongly to turn on. Among them are conserved non-coding elements, or CNEs DNA sequences that have remained remarkably similar across different species.</p><p>Think of a CNE as a sentence that nature has copied into several editions of the same book.</p><p>A mouse has it.</p><p>A bird has it.</p><p>A human has it.</p><p>And despite millions of years of evolution, much of the sentence remains almost unchanged.</p><p>That conservation is a clue: this piece of DNA probably matters.</p><p>But there was a problem. Finding these hidden sentences across enormous genomes is difficult. Researchers needed to compare many genomes, identify conserved regions, and then determine which of those regions might have evolved unusually quickly in particular branches of the evolutionary tree.</p><p>Enter CNEwrap.&nbsp;https://github.com/YanCCscu/CNEwrap</p><p>The researchers developed CNEwrap as a streamlined toolkit capable of handling large-scale genome comparisons, conserved-element detection, and evolutionary analysis. Inside it is a new algorithm called EvoAcc, designed to identify CNEs that show accelerated evolution in specific species or lineages.</p><p>Why does that matter?</p><p>Because evolution isn't just about what stays the same.</p><p>Sometimes, the most interesting story is hidden in what changed.</p><p>Imagine that nearly every species carries the same regulatory sentence, but one lineage suddenly has several unusual edits. Perhaps those changes helped shape a new body structure, a different adaptation, or another distinctive trait.</p><p>EvoAcc is designed to help researchers find these evolutionary clues. In the study's tests, it performed particularly well in scenarios involving two or three accelerated lineages and showed improved sensitivity to insertion and deletion mutations compared with several existing approaches.</p><p>The researchers also tested CNEwrap using functional genomic regions from mammals and found that EvoAcc could recover human-specific accelerated regions while identifying some signals that other methods missed.</p><p>So the story of CNEwrap is really a story about looking beyond the obvious.</p><p>For decades, scientists have often focused on the DNA that directly encodes proteins. But the genome is more like a vast library: the protein-coding genes are the main text, while non-coding regions may contain punctuation, instructions, switches, annotations, and editing notes that tell the cell how to read the book.</p><p>CNEwrap gives researchers a new way to search that hidden material.</p><p>And perhaps somewhere inside those billions of DNA letters is an evolutionary story we haven't read yet.</p><p>The exciting part is that we now have better tools to find it.</p><p>Read more about it&nbsp;https://academic.oup.com/nar/article/54/14/gkag709/8738333?</p>]]></description>

	<description><![CDATA[<p>NextSV, a meta SV caller and a computational pipeline to perform SV calling from low coverage long-read sequencing data. NextSV integrates three aligners and three SV callers and generates two integrated call sets (sensitive/stringent) for different analysis purpose. The output of NextSV is in ANNOVAR-compatible bed format. Users can easily perform downstream annotation using ANNOVAR and disease gene discovery using Phenolyzer.</p>

	<description><![CDATA[<p>Parliament2 identifies structural variants in a given sample relative to a reference genome. These structural variants cover large deletion events that are called as Deletions of a region, Insertions of a sequence into a region, Duplications of a region, Inversions of a region, or Translocations between two regions in the genome.</p>
<p>Parliament2 runs a combination of tools to generate structural variant calls on whole-genome sequencing data. It can run the following callers: Breakdancer, Breakseq2, CNVnator, Delly2, Manta, and Lumpy. Because of synergies in how the programs use computational resources, these are all run in parallel. Parliament2 will produce the outputs of each of the tools for subsequent investigation.</p><p>Address of the bookmark: <a href="https://github.com/dnanexus/parliament2" rel="nofollow">https://github.com/dnanexus/parliament2</a></p>]]></description>
