ikim-essen.github.io - UnCoVar: Workflow for Transparent and Robust Virus Variant Calling, Genome Reconstruction and Lineage Assignment
Using state of the art tools, easily extended for other viruses
Tool and database updates for critical components via...
As genome screening becomes more affordable and integrated into routine healthcare, its potential to transform lives is immense. Policymakers, healthcare providers, and genetic counselors must collaborate to ensure ethical implementation, public...
Genomics is moving beyond the traditional approach of studying DNA using a single reference genome. Today, researchers are increasingly using pangenomes, which represent genetic information from multiple genomes and capture a much broader range of...
This question led to the AlphaGenome Atlas (https://deepmind.google.com/science/alphagenome/atlas?), a detailed map of nearly every possible single-letter change in the human genome. Instead of checking each change one by one, researchers can use...
Every newly sequenced genome contains thousands of proteins, but identifying what each protein does is a much harder task. Among these proteins are protein kinases, important molecular regulators that control processes such as cell growth,...
github.com - HipSTR was specifically developed to deal with these errors in the hopes of obtaining more robust STR genotypes. In particular, it accomplishes this by:
Learning locus-specific PCR stutter models using an EM algorithm
Mining candidate...
github.com - Automatic Filtering, Trimming, Error Removing and Quality Control for fastq dataAfterQC can simply go through all fastq files in a folder and then output three folders: good, bad and QC folders, which contains good...
ecogenomics.github.io - CheckM provides a set of tools for assessing the quality of genomes recovered from isolates, single cells, or metagenomes. It provides robust estimates of genome completeness and contamination by using collocated sets of genes that are ubiquitous...
github.com - Filtlong is a tool for filtering long reads by quality. It can take a set of long reads and produce a smaller, better subset. It uses both read length (longer is better) and read identity (higher is better) when choosing which reads pass the...
github.com - Welcome to kevlar, software for predicting de novo genetic variants without mapping reads to a reference genome! kevlar's k-mer abundance based method calls single nucleotide variants (SNVs), multinucleotide variants (MNVs),...
