PhyloGrapher - Graph Visualization Tool

Jit — Wed, 07 Mar 2018 18:11:25 -0600

PhyloGrapher is a program designed to visualize and study evolutionary relationships within families of homologous genes or proteins (elements). PhyloGrapher is a drawing tool that generates custom graphs for a given set of elements. In general, it is possible to use PhyloGrapher to visualize any type of relations between elements.

TelomereHunter

Jit — Fri, 02 Feb 2018 04:23:59 -0600

TelomereHunter is a tool for estimating telomere content from human whole-genome sequencing data. It is designed to take BAM files from a tumor and a matching control sample as input. However, it is also possible to run TelomereHunter with one input file. TelomereHunter extracts and sorts telomeric reads from the input sample(s). For the estimation of telomere content, GC biases are taken into account. Finally, the results of TelomereHunter are visualized in several diagrams.

TelomereHunter is available for download at the following address: https://pypi.python.org/pypi/telomerehunter/

Synima: Synteny Imaging tool

Jit — Sun, 10 Dec 2017 17:03:48 -0600

Synteny Imaging tool (Synima) written in Perl, which uses the graphical features of R. Synima takes orthologues computed from reciprocal best BLAST hits or OrthoMCL, and DAGchainer, and outputs an overview of genome-wide synteny in PDF. Each of these programs are included with the Synima package, and a pipeline for their use. Synima has a range of graphical parameters including size, colours, order, and labels, which are specified in a config file generated by the first run of Synima – and can be subsequently edited. Synima runs quickly on a command line to generate informative and publication quality figures. Synima is open source and freely available from https://github.com/rhysf/Synima under the MIT License.

TAREAN: A computational tool for identification and characterization of satellite DNA from unassembled short reads

Surabhi Chaudhary — Tue, 15 May 2018 02:53:11 -0500

TAndem REpeat ANalyzer -TAREAN – is a computational pipeline for unsupervised identification of satellite repeats from unassembled sequence reads. The pipeline uses low-pass whole genome sequence reads and performs their graph-based clustering. Resulting clusters, representing all types of repeats, are then examined for the presence of circular structures and putative satellite repeats are reported.

How to use TAREAN:

Install a local instance of the pipeline using its source code available from bitbucket repository.
Use public Galaxy-based server at https://repeatexplorer-elixir.cerit-sc.cz/. The server is provided in frame of the Elixir CZ project and is maintained by CESNET and CERIT-SC. Simple registration is required to use this service.

Development of TAREAN was supported by ELIXIR CZ research infrastructure project (MEYS Grant No: LM2015047).

“One code to find them all”: a perl tool to conveniently parse RepeatMasker output files

Poonam Mahapatra — Mon, 04 Jun 2018 03:45:15 -0500

One code to find them all is a set of perl scripts to extract useful information from RepeatMasker about transposable elements, retrieve their sequences and get some quantitative information. Assemble RepeatMasker hits into complete TE copies, including LTR-retrotransposon Retrieve corresponding TE sequences, and flanking sequences, from the local fasta files Compute summary statistics for each TE family (number of TE copies, genome coverage...) Ambiguous cases such as nested TE can be assembled into copies automatically or manually Allow for working with a TE user-defined library Allow for working with only a user-chosen set of TE families http://doua.prabi.fr/software/one-code-to-find-them-all

mScaffolder: A comparative genome scaffolding tool

Jit — Fri, 15 Jun 2018 04:48:01 -0500

A comparative genome scaffolding tool based on MUMmer

mScaffolder scaffolds a genome using an existing high quality genome as the reference. It aligns the two genomes using nucmer utility from MUMmer and then orders and orients the contigs of the candidate genome guided by their alignments to the reference genome. Please send your questions and comments to mchakrab@uci.edu.
