I just got Nimblegen v2 exome data. I would like to assemble the reads, exon by exon. Is there a program that will do this? DNAnexus maps the reads to the Golden Path and provides variant calls, but they do not provide an assembled sequence for each covered exon.

Why do you want to assemble rather than align the data?
I do not suggest using DNAnexus for mapping/variant calling. Results are quite different from the very accurate results of BWA (or Novoalign) and GATK/Dindel in my experience.Mendelian Disorder: A blogshare of random useful information for general public consumption. [Blog]

Not that I know of, but they just started offering bwa as an alternative mapping approach to their proprietary method.Professor of Pharmaceutical Sciences at Southern Illinois University.

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...-

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...-
