  • Suboptimal hits

    Novoalign will do this for you. You might have to play around with the parameters to get exactly what you want (how many suboptimal hits, how suboptimal etc).

    • I think that Bowtie will also return the optimal and sub-optimal matches.

      Bowtie is a BWA program, that's the algorithm that the fastest aligners are based on.

        Thank you for everything.

        There is a script FASTA_to_frg_file.pl under Linux-amd64/bin/ that can convert fasta to .frg file.

        • I didn't see MACS and PeakSeq among the ChIP-seq peak callers. Those should be added.

          • SHORE (SHOrt REads)

            It is an impressive package .. with a lot of statistics and pretty plots generated at the end of analysis. Wonder why no one catched it here.



            Now my query is, how it matches up to MAQ and others.. it is pretty fast though

                Assembly By Short Sequences - a de novo, parallel, paired-end sequence assembler


                Genome Res. 2009 Feb 27.

                ABySS: A parallel assembler for short read sequence data.

                Widespread adoption of massively parallel DNA sequencing instruments has prompted the recent development of de novo short read assembly algorithms. A common shortcoming of the available tools is their inability to efficiently assemble vast amounts of data generated from large-scale sequencing projects, such as the sequencing of individual human genomes to catalog natural genetic variation. To address this limitation, we developed ABySS (Assembly By Short Sequences), a parallelized sequence assembler. As a demonstration of the capability of our software, we assembled 3.5 billion paired-end reads from the genome of an African male publicly released by Illumina Inc. Approximately 2.76 million contigs >/=100bp in length were created with an N50 size of 1499bp, representing 68% of the reference human genome. Analysis of these contigs identified polymorphic and novel sequences not present in the human reference assembly, which were validated by alignment to alternate human assemblies and to other primate genomes

                  • Hi everyone,

                    I'm new to NGS. I'm looking for a software package to analyze the sequences. Are there any review articles about the softwares?

                    Thanks,

                    • Staden GAP5

                      i note that there is no active link in the posting

                      * STADEN - Includes GAP4. GAP5 once completed will handle next-gen sequencing data. A partially implemented test version is available here

                      anybody have news about GAP5? havent found a satisfying assembler with graphics

                        They've been saying that gap5 will handle short reads for about a year, so I wouldn't hold your breath on that one.

                        If you are doing mouse or human or rat, UCSC can be worked with. I don't know if it can be tweaked into accepting genomes or trasncriptomes of other organisms.

                          are you saying that there is some utility in the UCSC Genome Browser for assembling genomes from short reads? havent heard about that ...

                            It's not assembly, it would be more like alignment, and I think I heard this is doable, but I don't work with any of the organisms they have there, so I didn't investigate for myself.

                            • thanks swbarnes2

                              i think i will post a query on the UCSC listserver
                              [email protected]
                              and see if someone like Jim Kent is thinking about some utility that could facilitate reference assembly on a local Genome Browser ... he's the guy i think who initiated BLAT and isPCR on their site



                              the browser can be installed locally and used with any genome ... but without taking into account quality values from the reads its hard to imagine not getting just a mess doing a BLAT-like alignment ... i think

                                I would be interested to know how DNASTAR Seqman NGen does with ChIP-Seq as well as DGE alignments. I need to get data to complete neophytes off of all these platforms. Horsepower and speed could take back seat to "ease of use" since each user will be getting just a portion of a complete run.

                                Any other packages that qualify as "easy to use" out there? Can any of them handle SRF files from a Helicos too?

                                I know, not asking for much. Can it filter RAW and tie my shoes also?

                                  Despite advancements in sequencing platforms and related sample preparation technologies, certain sample types continue to present significant challenges that can compromise sequencing results. Pedro Echave, Senior Manager of the Global Business Segment at Revvity, explained that the success of a sequencing experiment ultimately depends on the amount and integrity of the nucleic acid template (RNA or DNA) obtained from a sample. “The better the quality of the nucleic acid isolated...
