  • Valid tools to use for Detecting SV/CNV in Whole Exome Data

    I am working on whole exome data. i have 7 samples but no matching normal sample. i am to detect SV/CNV variant for these samples.
    The sequencing platform is Illumina and i have BAM files ready for variant calling.
    Are the tools PINDEL , BREAKSEQ and CNVnator Appropriate for Whole Exome Sequencing data without matching normal sample? i have tried ready the tool publication but they only refer to NGS data, not Exome Data Compatibility in Specific. If possible are any other tools available for WES Data without matching Normal!
    NEED HELP!!!!!!!

    If you have paired-end data, you can use BreakDancer without normal sample, but it is produce more false positives.

      The DNASTAR Genomics Suite provides an assembler than can align multiple exomes on a desktop computer and produce BAM file output. The output BAM files can be analyzed in ArrayStar for variants, including CNV and do not require a "Normal" control. There are free 30-day demo you can request from their website.

        Look here: http://www.biostars.org/p/13807/

        Breakdancer and Pindel will not really work because most breakpoints are not captured by exome capture sequencing. You will need an approach based on coverage and/or heterozygous SNP allele frequencies.

          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...
