  • bioinformatics tool for RNA-seq data analysis: ideas wanted

    Hi all

    I'm planning to design a software tool for a bioinformatics programming project at university. It is mostly for fun during summer, but better if the software is useful and reusable for community, it would be more motivating. I have no restriction on software type, it can be anything. I mostly know python and bash, and not used to more low-level languages such as C++ or Java. A cute and useful script is what I am aiming at.

    I have direct access to NGS RNA-seq data for D. melanogaster whole body females:
    - Illumina HiSeq2500 paired-end reads (.fastq)
    - Oxford MinION (.fast5, can be extracted to .fastq as well)

    So, what would you suggest? Maybe, something related to isoform detection/benchamarking going besides the standard pipelines?

    Thank you in advance for your ideas.

    Use the illumina reads to generate ideal electrical sequence models, then try to match those models quickly to the MinION reads (event model, or raw signal).

      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...
