AMStat: display statistics of large sequence files from next generation sequencing projects

Neel — Fri, 09 Nov 2018 13:34:56 -0600

SAMStat is an efficient C program to quickly display statistics of large sequence files from next generation sequencing projects. When applied to SAM/BAM files all statistics are reported for unmapped, poorly and accurately mapped reads separately. This allows for identification of a variety of problems, such as remaining linker and adaptor sequences, causing poor mapping. Apart from this SAMStat can be used to verify individual processing steps in large analysis pipelines.

EXCAVATOR: detecting copy number variants from whole-exome sequencing data

Radha Agarkar — Fri, 04 Jan 2019 10:10:48 -0600

EXCAVATOR, for the detection of copy number variants (CNVs) from whole-exome sequencing data. EXCAVATOR combines a three-step normalization procedure with a novel heterogeneous hidden Markov model algorithm and a calling method that classifies genomic regions into five copy number states. We validate EXCAVATOR on three datasets and compare the results with three other methods. These analyses show that EXCAVATOR outperforms the other methods and is therefore a valuable tool for the investigation of CNVs in largescale projects, as well as in clinical research and diagnostics. EXCAVATOR is freely available at http://sourceforge.net/projects/excavatortool/.

EXCAVATOR is a novel software package for the detection of copy number variants (CNVs) from whole-exome sequencing data.
EXCAVATOR has been published on Genome Biology (http://genomebiology.com/2013/14/10/R120/abstract).

jackalope: A swift, versatile phylogenomic and high-throughput sequencing simulator

Abhimanyu Singh — Fri, 26 Jul 2019 00:58:12 -0500

jackalope simply and efficiently simulates (i) variants from reference genomes and (ii) reads from both Illumina and Pacific Biosciences (PacBio) platforms. It can either read reference genomes from FASTA files or simulate new ones. Genomic variants can be simulated using summary statistics, phylogenies, Variant Call Format (VCF) files, and coalescent simulations—the latter of which can include selection, recombination, and demographic fluctuations. jackalope can simulate single, paired-end, or mate-pair Illumina reads, as well as reads from Pacific Biosciences These simulations include sequencing errors, mapping qualities, multiplexing, and optical/PCR duplicates. All outputs can be written to standard file formats.

McClintock: Meta-pipeline to identify transposable element insertions using next generation sequencing data

BioStar — Tue, 27 Oct 2020 00:21:18 -0500

an integrated bioinformatics pipeline for the detection of TE insertions in whole-genome shotgun data, called McClintock (https://github.com/bergmanlab/mcclintock), which automatically runs and standardizes output for multiple TE detection methods. We demonstrate the utility of McClintock by evaluating six TE detection methods using simulated and real genome data from the model microbial eukaryote, Saccharomyces cerevisiae.
