Webinar on Unique Molecular Identifier-powered Ultra-sensitive Variant Calling using Strand NGS - Case Study
by Dr. Pandurang Kolekar, Bioinformatics Engineer, Strand Life Sciences
Abstract:
Unique Molecular Identifiers (UMIs) are short...
Uncovering Mechanisms of Hepatotoxicity for High Affinity Antisense Oligonucleotides – 3’ end RNA-seq Profiling Using GeneSpring GX
High affinity antisense oligonucleotides (ASOs) containing bicylic modifications (BNA) such as locked...
El-Sherif lab studies how genes are regulated to mediate patterning in Development. We use live and super-resolution imaging in addition to computational modeling to understand transcription dynamics at the single-cell level in three model systems:...
github.com - LTR_Finder is an efficient program for finding full-length LTR retrotranspsons in genome sequences.
The Program first constructs all exact match pairs by a suffix-array based algorithm and extends them to long highly similar pairs. Then...
github.com - RefKA, a reference-based approach for long read genome assembly. This approach relies on breaking up a closely related reference genome into bins, aligning k-mers unique to each bin with PacBio reads, and then assembling each bin in parallel...
disco.omicsbio.org - DISCO is a multi threaded and multiprocess distributed memory overlap-layout-consensus (OLC) metagenome assembler. Disco was developed as a scalable assembler to assemble large metagenomes from billions of Illumina sequencing reads of complex...
github.com - FastProNGS to integrate the quality control process with automatic adapter removal. Parallel processing was implemented to speed up the process by allocating multiple threads. Compared with similar up-to-date preprocessing tools, FastProNGS is by...
github.com - Trinity, developed at the Broad Institute and the Hebrew University of Jerusalem, represents a novel method for the efficient and robust de novo reconstruction of transcriptomes from RNA-seq data. Trinity combines three independent software modules:...
ncbi.github.io - Magic-BLAST is a tool for mapping large next-generation RNA or DNA sequencing runs against a whole genome or transcriptome. Each alignment optimizes a composite score, taking into account simultaneously the two reads of a pair, and in case of...
