PyParanoid: a pipeline for rapid identification of homologous gene families in a set of genomes

BioStar — Thu, 13 Aug 2020 10:06:19 -0500

PyParanoid is a pipeline for rapid identification of homologous gene families in a set of genomes - a central task of any comparative genomics analysis. The "gold standard" for identifying homologs is to use reciprocal best hits (RBHs) which depends on performing a all-vs-all sequence comparison, usually using BLAST, to determine homology. However, these methods are computationally expensive, requiring O(n2) resources to identify RBHs. This is problematic, as the modern deluge of sequencing data means that comparative genomics analyses could be performed on datasets of thousands of strains.

CAMSA :: a tool for Comparative Analysis and Merging of Scaffold Assemblies

Rahul Nayak — Thu, 28 Dec 2017 09:10:26 -0600

CAMSA – is a tool for Comparative Analysis and Merging of Scaffold Assemblies, distributed both as a standalone software package and as Python library under the MIT license.

Main features:

works with any number of scaffold assemblies in de-novo non-progressive fashion
allows to simultaneously work with scaffold assemblies obtained from any in silico and in vitro techniques, supporting multiple existing formats via built-in converters
creates an extensive report with several comparative quality metrics (both on assembly level and on the level of individual assembly points)
constructs a merged combined scaffold assembly
provides an interactive framework for a visual comparative analysis of the given assemblies

G-compass: a comparative genome browser

Jit — Thu, 12 Apr 2018 10:00:27 -0500

G-compass (http://www.h-invitational.jp/g-compass/) is a comparative genome browser. It visualizes evolutionarily conserved genomic regions between human and other 12 vertebrates based on original genome alignments pursuing higher coverage (1,2). Annotations of human genes/transcripts and their ortholog information were derived from H-InvDB and its subdatabase Evola, respectively. G-compass is available for free of charge. [ Sample ]

poRe: an R package for the visualization and analysis of nanopore sequencing data

Jit — Thu, 23 Nov 2017 09:55:57 -0600

Motivation: The Oxford Nanopore MinION device represents a unique sequencing technology. As a mobile sequencing device powered by the USB port of a laptop, the MinION has huge potential applications. To enable these applications, the bioinformatics community will need to design and build a suite of tools specifically for MinION data.

Results: Here we present poRe, a package for R that enables users to manipulate, organize, summarize and visualize MinION nanopore sequencing data. As a package for R, poRe has been tested on Windows, Linux and MacOSX. Crucially, the Windows version allows users to analyse MinION data on the Windows laptop attached to the device.

Availability and implementation: poRe is released as a package for R at http://sourceforge.net/projects/rpore/ . A tutorial and further information are available at https://sourceforge.net/p/rpore/wiki/Home/

BFC: a standalone high-performance tool for correcting sequencing errors from Illumina sequencing data

Jit — Thu, 31 May 2018 09:35:23 -0500

BFC is a standalone high-performance tool for correcting sequencing errors from Illumina sequencing data. It is specifically designed for high-coverage whole-genome human data, though also performs well for small genomes. The BFC algorithm is a variant of the classical spectrum alignment algorithm introduced by Pevzner et al (2001). It uses an exhaustive search to find a k-mer path through a read that minimizes a heuristic objective function jointly considering penalties on correction, quality and k-mer support. This algorithm was first implemented in my fermi assembler and then refined a few times in fermi, fermi2 and now in BFC. In the k-mer counting phase, BFC uses a blocked bloom filter to filter out most singleton k-mers and keeps the rest in a hash table (Melsted and Pritchard, 2011). The use of bloom filter is how BFC is named, though other correctors such as Lighter and Bless actually rely more on bloom filter than BFC. https://github.com/lh3/bfc
