An algorithm to use optical map information directly within the de Bruijn graph framework to help produce an accurate assembly of a genome that is consistent with the optical map information provided. AGORA takes as input two data structures: OpMap ? an ordered list of fragment sizes representing the optical map; and Edges ? a list of de Bruijn graph edges with their corresponding sequences.

http://sourceforge.net/apps/mediawiki/amos/index.php?title=Bambus2

Software for scaffolding to address some of the challenges encountered when analyzing metagenomes. Scaffolding represents the task of ordering and orienting contigs by incorporating additional information about their relative placement along the genome. While most other scaffolders are closely tied to a specific assembly program, Bambus accepts the output from most current assemblers and provides the user with great flexibility in choosing the scaffolding parameters. In particular, Bambus is able to accept contig linking data other than specified by mate-pairs. Such sources of information include alignment to a reference genome (Bambus can directly use the output of MUMmer), physical mapping data, or information about gene synteny.

http://clams.jgi-psf.org/

THIS RESOURCE IS NO LONGER IN SERVICE. Documented on May 2nd, 2023. Sequence composition based classifier for metagenomic sequences. It works by capturing signatures of each sequence based on the sequence composition. Each sequence is modeled as a walk in a de Bruijn graph with underlying Markov chain properties. ClaMS captures stationary parameters of the underlying Markov chain as well as structural parameters of the underlying de Bruijn graph to form this signature. In practice, for each sequence to binned, such a signature is computed and matched to similar signatures computed for the training sets. The best match that also qualifies the normalized distance cut-off wins. In the case that the best match does not qualify this cut-off, the sequence remains un-binned.

https://sites.google.com/site/jingyijli/SLIDE.zip

Software package that takes exon boundaries and RNA-Seq data as input to discern the set of mRNA isoforms that are most likely to present in an RNA-Seq sample. It is based on a linear model with a design matrix that models the sampling probability of RNA-Seq reads from different mRNA isoforms. To tackle the model unidentifiability issue, SLIDE uses a modified Lasso procedure for parameter estimation. Compared with deterministic isoform assembly algorithms (e.g., Cufflinks), SLIDE considers the stochastic aspects of RNA-Seq reads in exons from different isoforms and thus has increased power in detecting more novel isoforms. Another advantage of SLIDE is its flexibility of incorporating other transcriptomic data such as RACE, CAGE, and EST into its model to further increase isoform discovery accuracy. SLIDE can also work downstream of other RNA-Seq assembly algorithms to integrate newly discovered genes and exons. Besides isoform discovery, SLIDE sequentially uses the same linear model to estimate the abundance of discovered isoforms.

http://sourceforge.net/projects/viralfusionseq/

A versatile high-throughput sequencing (HTS) tool for discovering viral integration events and reconstruct fusion transcripts at single-base resolution. It combines soft-clipping information, read-pair analysis, and targeted de novo assembly to discover and annotate viral-human fusion events. A simple yet effective empirical statistical model is used to evaluate the quality of fusion breakpoints. Minimal user defined parameters are required.

https://github.com/tk2/RetroSeq

A tool for discovery and genotyping of transposable element variants (TEVs) (also known as mobile element insertions) from next-gen sequencing reads aligned to a reference genome in BAM format. The goal is to call TEVs that are not present in the reference genome but present in the sample that has been sequenced. It should be noted that RetroSeq can be used to locate any class of viral insertion in any species where whole-genome sequencing data with a suitable reference genome is available. RetroSeq is a two phase process, the first being the read pair discovery phase where discorandant mate pairs are detected and assigned to a TE class (Alu, SINE, LINE, etc.) by using either the annotated TE elements in the reference and/or aligned with Exonerate to the supplied library of viral sequences.

https://github.com/cwhelan/cloudbreak

Software providing a Hadoop-based genomic structural variation (SV) caller for Illumina paired-end DNA sequencing data. It contains a full pipeline for aligning data in the form of FASTQ files using alignment pipelines that generate many possible mappings for every read, in the Hadoop framework. It then contains Hadoop jobs for computing genomic features from the alignments, and for calling insertion and deletion variants from those features.

http://yost.genetics.utah.edu/software.php

A software analysis pipeline for mapping mutations using RNA-seq that works without parental strain information, without the requirement of a pre-existing snp map of the organism, and without erroneous assumptions that recombination occurs at the same frequency across the genome. In addition, it compensates for the considerable amount of noise in RNA-seq datasets and simultaneously identifies the region where the mutation lies and generates a list of putative coding region mutations in the linked genomic segment. MMAPPR can utilize RNA-seq datasets from isolated tissues or whole organisms that are often generated for phenotypic analysis and gene network analysis in novel mutants.

http://www.omicsoft.com/fusionmap/

An efficient fusion aligner which aligns reads spanning fusion junctions directly to the genome without prior knowledge of potential fusion regions. It detects and characterizes fusion junctions at base-pair resolution. FusionMap can be applied to detect fusion junctions in both single- and paired-end dataset from either gDNA-Seq or RNA-Seq studies. FusionMap runs under both Windows and Linux (requiring MONO) environments. Although it can run on 32 bit machine, it is recommended to run on 64-bit machine with 8GB RAM or more. If you have an ArrayStudio License, you can run the fusion detection easily through its GUI.

http://www.cs.helsinki.fi/en/gsa/traph/

A software tool for transcript identification and quantification with RNA-Seq. The method has a two-fold advantage: on the one hand, it translates the problem as an established one in the field of network flows, which can be solved in polynomial time, with different existing solvers; on the other hand, it is general enough to encompass many of the previous proposals under the least sum of squares model.

http://www.bsse.ethz.ch/cbg/software/shorah

A software package that allows for inference about the structure of a population from a set of short sequence reads as obtained from ultra-deep sequencing of a mixed sample. The package contains programs that support mapping of reads to a reference genome, correcting sequencing errors by locally clustering reads in small windows of the alignment, reconstructing a minimal set of global haplotypes that explain the reads, and estimating the frequencies of the inferred haplotypes.

http://www.broadinstitute.org/scientific-community/science/projects/viral-genomics/v-phaser-2

A software tool to call variants in genetically heterogeneous populations from ultra-deep sequence data. It combines information regarding the covariation (i.e. phasing) between observed variants to increase sensitivity and an expectation maximization algorithm that iteratively recalibrates base quality scores to increase specificity. V-Phaser can reliably detect rare variants in diverse populations that occur at frequencies of <1%. V-Phaser 2 is a complete rewrite of the original V-Phaser. It contains a new model for length polymorphisms (indels) and incorporates paired end read information in its phasing model. The data access and probability computation sections of the code have also been highly optimized, resulting in substantial improvements in running time and memory usage.
