  • Hybrid assembly of PacBio and Illumina

    I would like to know how people are handling hybrid assemblies of PacBio and Illumina. Are Velvet or the CLC-Bio good choices?

    Thanks for your input

    I know Bastien has been working on PacBio support in MIRA, which already supports Roche 454, Solexa/Illumina and Sanger reads for hybrid assemblies.

      ALLPATHS-LG has support for Illumina / Pacbio combined assemblies, but I understand it has quite strict requirements as to the particular type of input you give it. Nevertheless, check it out.

        There is a plug-in of the latest Celera assembler, PacBioToCA, written by Sergey Koren at NBACC, that uses illumina reads to error-correct PacBio reads and outputs a frg file for OLC assembly in the CA. We have used this to great success for bacterial genomes (with assistance from Sergey and Adam Phillippy). I think that Bastien's approach has been more one-step, i.e. incorporating the reads directly into the assembly, but I haven't attempted to compare the results. The v1.3 software from PacBio purports to support hybrid assembly as well, with claim to be better than the CA approach, but I haven't tried very hard to make it work or compare it rigorously since we already had the other pipeline working before v1.3 was released.

            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...
