  • Need some help with PacBioToCA

    Hello everybody,
    I'm a novice in genome assembly (and particularly with illumina and pacbio data) and I'm working on the genome of a symbiotic bacteria.

    For the moment, I tried hybrid assemblies with MIRA using Pacbio corrected seed reads (from HGAP2) and Illumina paired-end and mate pair reads. Now, I would like to correct my Pacbio long-reads with my Illumina data but I need some helps to perform this task. I know that there are advices on the SourceForge page but it is unclear for me. Briefly, I don't understand how install and use the PacbioToCA pipeline !

    Thanks in advance for your help.
    Vincent

    Given that you have HGAP2 results, I'm guessing you have SMRT Analysis installed? If so you have all the components installed to run PacBioToCA. It is also available as a protocol in SMRT Portal, which is probably the easiest way to run. PacBioToCA (now PBcR) has been updated since the version included in SMRT Analysis and it is probably worth while using the new (8.1) version. Instructions for install:
    http://sourceforge.net/projects/wgs-...mbler/wgs-8.1/
    It is available as executables so is straightforward to install. It should then be possible to follow:
    http://sourceforge.net/apps/mediawik...php?title=PBcR
    You can find some test data:

      My notes to get 8.1 to work within the SMRT analysis pipeline are on this forum. Obviously if running on command-line outside of SMRT analysis, you won't need all of these.

      Here are the relevant bits:
      #installing current version of wgs...
      sudo mv $DOWNLOADPATH/wgs-8.1-Linux-amd64.tar.bz2 $SMRT_HOME/install/smrtanalysis-2.1.1.128549/analysis/bin
      cd $SMRT_HOME/install/smrtanalysis-2.1.1.128549/analysis/bin
      sudo tar xjf wgs-8.1-Linux-amd64.tar.bz2 #creates wgs-8.1 directory and fills it
      mv wgs-7.0/ wgs-7.0.0 #or wgs.old
      sudo ln -s wgs wgs-7.0 #points files that depend on wgs7.0 in the path to a generic "wgs" which will be the current version. hopefully pacbio will eventually switch all files to point to a generic/current wgs directory
      sudo ln -s wgs-8.1/ wgs #points the generic to the most up-to-date
      sudo chown -h smrtanalysis:smrtanalysis wgs* #changes links' ownership
      sudo chown -R smrtanalysis:smrtanalysis wgs-8.1/
      sudo chmod -R ug=rX,o-rwx wgs-8.1/

        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...
