  • Clinical Sequencing Software

    Hello All,
    Is anyone aware of a group or company developing a next gen sequencing pipeline (AB SOLiD, Illumina GA or Roche 454 platforms) for clinical diagnostics laboratories ?

    We're really most interested in the resequencing analysis and variant reporting/annotation aspects and less in the sample management end. We already have an LIS for sample tracking, etc. We would like to accomplish a few basic tasks: 1) Rapidly compare our set of variants with variants in existing databases; 2) Develop our own database as we accumulate variants -- keeping track of pathogenic vs. non-pathogenic variants -- as well as variants of unknown significance; 3) Easily run pipelines such as SIFT or PolyPhen to predict pathogenicity of novel variants.

    Once we have a pipeline established -- we're like any good clinical lab -- we want to the same thing over and over again --- and do it well.

    Any suggestions you can give or directions you can point me to, would be greatly appreciated !
    Thank you !

    Only companies I know of are CLC Bio, NextGene (Softgenetics) and GenomeQuest.

    I believe only GenomeQuest helps with custom databases. I personally think they are very expensive.

      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...

      Strategies for Sequencing Challenging Samples
      by seqadmin


      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...
