S-plot2: creates an interactive, two-dimensional heatmap of sequences

Jit — Fri, 28 Sep 2018 05:36:19 -0500

S-plot2 creates an interactive, two-dimensional heatmap capturing the similarities and dissimilarities in nucleotide usage between genomic sequences (partial or complete). In S-plot2, whole eukaryotic chromosomes and smaller prokaryotic genomes can be efficiently compared. The tool includes functionality to extract, analyze, and automate BLAST queries of regions of interest within the heatmap. This facilitates the investigation of quickly evolving coding regions, novel coding regions, and laterally transferred elements.

SiLiX: implements an ultra-efficient algorithm for the clustering of homologous sequences

Jit — Wed, 12 Dec 2018 09:22:41 -0600

The software package SiLiX implements an ultra-efficient algorithm for the clustering of homologous sequences, based on single transitive links (single linkage) with alignment coverage constraints.

SiLiX adopts a graph-theoretical framework to interpret similarity pairs as edges of a network. A very efficient algorithm, based on the Disjoint Sets Data Structure, allows the computation of sequence families with low time and space requirements.

A parallel version of SiLiX, based on MPI, is also available in this package and has been proved to be scalable, so that its allows the study of very large datasets.

SiLiX is already included in the analysis pipeline for HOGENOM.

Kalign: fast multiple sequence alignment program for biological sequences.

BioStar — Fri, 01 Nov 2019 00:20:41 -0500

Kalign is a fast multiple sequence alignment program for biological sequences.

Align sequences and output the alignment in MSF format:

kalign -i BB11001.tfa -f msf  -o out.msf

Align sequences and output the alignment in clustal format:

kalign -i BB11001.tfa -f clu -o out.clu

Re-align sequences in an existing alignment:

kalign -i BB11001.msf  -o out.afa

Reformat existing alignment:

kalign -i BB11001.msf -r afa -o out.afa

Tiara: deep learning-based classification system for eukaryotic sequences

Rahul Nayak — Mon, 14 Mar 2022 23:02:11 -0500

With a large number of metagenomic datasets becoming available, eukaryotic metagenomics emerged as a new challenge. The proper classification of eukaryotic nuclear and organellar genomes is an essential step toward a better understanding of eukaryotic diversity.

MACSE: Multiple Alignment of Coding SEquences Accounting for Frameshifts and Stop Codons

Jit — Mon, 18 Feb 2019 04:21:50 -0600

MACSE aligns coding NT sequences with respect to their AA translation while allowing NT sequences to contain multiple frameshifts and/or stop codons. MACSE is hence the first automatic solution to align protein-coding gene datasets containing non-functional sequences (pseudogenes) without disrupting the underlying codon structure. It has also proved useful in detecting undocumented frameshifts in public database sequences and in aligning next-generation sequencing reads/contigs against a reference coding sequence.

For further details about the underlying algorithm see the original publication:
