China’s BGI says it can sequence a genome for just $100

Neel — Sat, 29 Feb 2020 04:49:43 -0600

Using technology originally acquired in the US, the Chinese gene giant BGI Group says it will make genome sequencing cheaper than ever, breaking the $100 barrier for the first time.

The Shenzhen company says the low cost will be possible with an “extreme” DNA sequencing system it plans to offer that is capable of decoding the genomes of 100,000 people a year.

MMseqs2: ultra fast and sensitive sequence search and clustering suite

Manisha Mishra — Mon, 18 Jan 2021 10:47:56 -0600

MMseqs2 (Many-against-Many sequence searching) is a software suite to search and cluster huge protein and nucleotide sequence sets. MMseqs2 is open source GPL-licensed software implemented in C++ for Linux, MacOS, and (as beta version, via cygwin) Windows. The software is designed to run on multiple cores and servers and exhibits very good scalability. MMseqs2 can run 10000 times faster than BLAST. At 100 times its speed it achieves almost the same sensitivity. It can perform profile searches with the same sensitivity as PSI-BLAST at over 400 times its speed.

UniAligner: a parameter-free framework for fast sequence alignment

Abhi — Fri, 08 Mar 2024 23:36:12 -0600

UniAligner (formerly, TandemAligner) is the first parameter-free algorithm for sequence alignment that introduces a sequence-dependent alignment scoring that automatically changes for any pair of compared sequences. Classical alignment approaches, such as the Smith-Waterman algorithm, that work well for most sequences, fail to construct biologically adequate alignments of extra-long tandem repeats (ETRs), such as human centromeres and immunoglobulin loci. This limitation was overlooked in the previous studies since the sequences of the centromeres and other ETRs across multiple genomes only became available recently.

2.4 Mb Genome Size for World's Biggest Virus

Jitendra Narayan — Thu, 08 Aug 2013 10:05:37 -0500

The genome size of new discovered Pandoraviruses have roughly twice the size of the record-holding Megavirus genomic code. Interestingly only 6 percent of its genes resembled the genes other organisms. It is assume that it may come from a different origin.

fastv - detect virus

Jit — Sat, 11 Dec 2021 08:04:10 -0600

fastv is an ultra-fast tool for identification of SARS-CoV-2 and other microbes from sequencing data. It detects microbial sequences from FASTQ data, generates JSON reports and visualizes the result in HTML reports. This tool can be used to detect viral infectious diseases, like COVID-19. This tool supports both short reads (Illumina, BGI, etc.) and long reads (ONT, PacBio, etc.)
