  • PubMed: ZOOM! Zillions Of Oligos Mapped.

    Syndicated from PubMed RSS Feeds

    ZOOM! Zillions Of Oligos Mapped.

    Bioinformatics. 2008 Aug 6;

    Authors: Lin H, Zhang Z, Zhang MQ, Ma B, Li M

    MOTIVATION: The next generation sequencing technologies are generating billions of short reads daily. Resequencing and personalized medicine need much faster software to map these deep sequencing reads to a reference genome, to identify SNPs or rare transcripts. RESULTS: We present a framework for how full sensitivity mapping can be done in the most efficient way, via spaced seeds. Using the framework, we have developed software called ZOOM, which is able to map the Illumina/Solexa reads of 15X coverage of a human genome to the reference human genome in one CPU-day, allowing two mismatches, at full sensitivity. AVAILABILITY: ZOOM is freely available to non-commercial users at http://www.bioinfor.com/zoom CONTACT: [email protected], [email protected], [email protected].

    Dead link?

    Has anyone been able to try this software? I am getting a 404 error from the link.

      We've been having a great conversation about it in another thread:

      Discussion of next-gen sequencing related bioinformatics: resources, algorithms, open source efforts, etc


      It's not yet available, but should be shortly.

        I wanted to let everyone know that the ZOOM demo is now available. Please send me an email at [email protected] to request a 30 day free demo.

        Please also check out our benchmarks for ZOOM at: http://www.bioinformaticssolutions.c...benchmarks.php for Illumina/Solexa data. The benchmarks for ABI SOLiD data will be coming soon.

          Essential Discoveries and Tools in Epitranscriptomics
          by seqadmin


          The field of epigenetics has traditionally concentrated more on DNA and how changes like methylation and phosphorylation of histones impact gene expression and regulation. However, our increased understanding of RNA modifications and their importance in cellular processes has led to a rise in epitranscriptomics research. “Epitranscriptomics brings together the concepts of epigenetics and gene expression,” explained Adrien Leger, PhD, Principal Research Scientist on Modified Bases...

          Current Approaches to Protein Sequencing
          by seqadmin


          Proteins are often described as the workhorses of the cell, and identifying their sequences is key to understanding their role in biological processes and disease. Currently, the most common technique used to determine protein sequences is mass spectrometry. While still a valuable tool, mass spectrometry faces several limitations and requires a highly experienced scientist familiar with the equipment to operate it. Additionally, other proteomic methods, like affinity assays, are constrained...
