Minipolish: A tool for Racon polishing of miniasm assemblies

BioStar — Tue, 03 Dec 2019 02:40:54 -0600

Miniasm is a great long-read assembly tool: straight-forward, effective and very fast. However, it does not include a polishing step, so its assemblies have a high error rate – they are essentially made of stitched-together pieces of long reads.

Racon is a great polishing tool that can be used to clean up assembly errors. It's also very fast and well suited for long-read data. However, it operates on FASTA files, not the GFA graphs that miniasm makes.

That's where Minipolish comes in. With a single command, it will use Racon to polish up a miniasm assembly, while keeping the assembly in graph form.

It also takes care of some of the other nuances of polishing a miniasm assembly:

Adding read depth information to contigs
Fixing sequence truncation that can occur in Racon
Adding circularising links to circular contigs if not already present (so they display better in Bandage)
'Rotating' circular contigs between polishing rounds to ensure clean circularisation

Chromonomer: a tool set for repairing and enhancing assembled genomes through integration of genetic maps and conserved synteny

Jit — Mon, 17 Feb 2020 05:38:46 -0600

Chromonomer is a program designed to integrate a genome assembly with a genetic map. Chromonomer tries very hard to identify and remove markers that are out of order in the genetic map, when considered against their local assembly order; and to identify scaffolds that have been incorrectly assembled according to the genetic map, and split those scaffolds.

Clustergrammer is a web-based tool for visualizing high-dimensional data as an interactive and shareable hierarchically clustered heatmap

BioStar — Sun, 23 Aug 2020 19:30:17 -0500

Clustergrammer is a web-based tool for visualizing high-dimensional data (e.g. a matrix) as an interactive and shareable hierarchically clustered heatmap. Clustergrammer's front end (Clustergrammer-JS) is built using D3.js and its back-end (Clustergrammer-PY) is built using Python. Clustergrammer produces highly interactive visualizations that enable intuitive exploration of high-dimensional data and has several biology-specific features (e.g. enrichment analysis, see Biology-Specific Features) to facilitate the exploration of gene-level biological data.
