  • AIRVF: a filtering toolbox for precise variant calling in Ion Torrent sequencing

    AIRVF that works on flowgram, raw and mapped reads and called variants to reduce artifact-driven false variant calls. Tests on sequencing data of standard reference material showed up to ∼98% reduction of false variants when combined to conventional public pipelines and ∼48% to the in-hou...

  • Magic-BLAST: a tool for mapping large next-generation RNA or DNA sequencing runs against a whole genome or transcriptome.

    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 RNA-seq, locating the candidate introns and adding up ...

  • TelomereHunter

    TelomereHunter is a tool for estimating telomere content from human whole-genome sequencing data. It is designed to take BAM files from a tumor and a matching control sample as input. However, it is also possible to run TelomereHunter with one input file. TelomereHunter extracts and sorts telomer...

  • Heap: a highly sensitive and accurate SNP detection tool for low-coverage high-throughput sequencing data

    Heap, that enables robustly sensitive and accurate calling of SNPs, particularly with a low coverage NGS data, which must be aligned to the reference genome sequences in advance. To reduce false positive SNPs, Heap determines genotypes and calls SNPs at each site except for sites at the both end ...

  • ALPACA: A hybrid strategy for assembly of genomic DNA shotgun sequencing reads.

    ALPACA requires Celera Assembler 8.3 or later. It is recommended to build Celera Assembler from source. (Why? The pre-built binaries CA_8.3rc1 and CA8.3rc2 will work for any large data set.  Detail paper at https://bmcgenomics.biomedcentral.com/articles/10.1186/s12864-017-3927-8

  • Flye: Fast and accurate de novo assembler for single molecule sequencing reads

    Flye is a de novo assembler for long and noisy reads, such as those produced by PacBio and Oxford Nanopore Technologies. The algorithm uses an A-Bruijn graph to find the overlaps between reads and does not require them to be error-corrected. After the initial assembly, Flye performs an extra repe...

  • HISAT2: a fast and sensitive alignment program for mapping next-generation sequencing reads

    HISAT2 is a fast and sensitive alignment program for mapping next-generation sequencing reads (both DNA and RNA) to a population of human genomes (as well as to a single reference genome). Based on an extension of BWT for graphs [Sirén et al. 2014], we designed and implemented a ...

  • MECAT: fast mapping, error correction, and de novo assembly for single-molecule sequencing reads

    MECAT is an ultra-fast Mapping, Error Correction and de novo Assembly Tools for single molecula sequencing (SMRT) reads. MECAT employs novel alignment and error correction algorithms that are much more efficient than the state of art of aligners and error correction tools. MECAT can be used for e...

  • HapCUT2: robust and accurate haplotype assembly for diverse sequencing technologies

    HapCUT2 is a maximum-likelihood-based tool for assembling haplotypes from DNA sequence reads, designed to "just work" with excellent speed and accuracy. We found that previously described haplotype assembly methods are specialized for specific read technologies or protocols, with slow or inaccura...
