quick memo for genome assembly workshop
DJ: PACBIO likely to be great for small genomes, but currently impractical for large genomes as can cost 10X more. #assemblathon #gaw
2011-03-16 02:58:10@iGenomics Eric Schadt (from PacBio) made the same point at #AGBT #gaw
2011-03-16 02:58:14Improvement of genome assembly quality http://bit.ly/ff2GaQ #gaw
2011-03-16 02:58:28ALLPATHS-LG will not work on capillary sequence data. #gaw #assemblathon
2011-03-16 03:01:11Genome assembly using short sequence reads and reduced representation libraries http://genome.cshlp.org/content/20/2/249.abstract #gaw
2011-03-16 03:02:01Have you evaluated conservative markers across different genomes and different assemblies? #gaw #assemblathon
2011-03-16 03:03:40Daniel Zerbino from UC Santa Cruz is up next: “Columbus: Templated assembly of partially mapped reads” (keep forgetting hashtags! #gaw)
2011-03-16 03:05:50ALLPATHS-LG is designed to look forward to use the new recipe not retrofit to legacy sequence data. #gaw #assemblathon
2011-03-16 03:06:57Up next, Daniel Zerbino to discuss Hybrid de novo and mapped assembly of short reads. #gaw
2011-03-16 03:07:48Daniel Zerbino: hybrid de novo & mapped assembly of short read genomics data. #gaw #assemblathon
2011-03-16 03:07:59Two churches for sequencing individual: mapping vs. de novo #gaw #assemblathon
2011-03-16 03:08:42Up now is Daniel Zerbino (UCSC) on a similar theme: "Hybrid de novo and mapped assembly of short read genomic data" #assemblathon #gaw
2011-03-16 03:08:52Mapping: many tools avalable, assembly: no reference needed, can find novel variant. #gaw
2011-03-16 03:09:30A reference -assisted de Bruign graph to reduce ambiguity. #gaw
2011-03-16 03:11:23Following Daniel Zerbino at #Assemblathon, the Columbus module within Velvet is available here: http://www.ebi.ac.uk/~zerbino/velvet/ #gaw
2011-03-16 03:13:24Zerbino and Birney algorithms for de novo short read assembly using de Bruijn graphs http://bit.ly/dPjCvy #gaw
2011-03-16 03:13:33Columus: preserve reference structure, use alignment data, allow de novo assembly options. #gaw #assemblathon
2011-03-16 03:14:08Fusion event confirmed by Berger et al, 2010 Genome Research #gaw #assemblathon
2011-03-16 03:15:26DZ: Using the reference structure and de bruijn graphs to capture de novo pieces. #gaw
2011-03-16 03:15:56DZ: Relating to the current talk, bit of a write up about the Columbus module within Velvet here: http://ow.ly/4f5lM #gaw #Assemblathon
2011-03-16 03:16:46Columbus did have longer length than velvet. read mismatches went down because respects difference sin reference genomes #gaw #assemblathon
2011-03-16 03:17:17Now following #gaw & #assemblathon (awesome tweeps @deannachurch @iGenomics @BGI_Events ) #genomics #bioinformatics
2011-03-16 03:17:57Columbus looks like a module of Velvet http://tinyurl.com/36mfjo7 and is available. #gaw
2011-03-16 03:18:02Lots of talk about new/different assembly file formats at this meeting. Clearly a need for something which is better than just FASTA #gaw
2011-03-16 03:19:09Zack Sanbord: breakpoint reassembly, use VC format to report structural variation. #gaw #assemblathon
