TrioVis 20130409 – Visualization approach for Filtering Genomic Variants of Parent-child Trios

TrioVis 20130409

:: DESCRIPTION

TrioVis is a visualisation tool developed to assist filtering on coverage and variant frequency for genomic variants from exome sequencing of parent-child trios. It organises the variant data by grouping each variant based on the laws of Mendelian inheritance. Taking three Variant Call Format (VCF) files as input, the tool provides a user interface to test different coverage thresholds (i.e. different levels of stringency), to find the optimal threshold values, and to gain insights into the global effects of filtering.

Portcullis 1.2.2 – Splice Junction Analysis and Filtering from BAM files

Portcullis 1.2.2

:: DESCRIPTION

Portcullis stands for PORTable CULLing of Invalid Splice junctions from pre-aligned RNA-seq data. It is known that RNAseq mapping tools generate many invalid junction predictions, particularly in deep datasets with high coverage over splice sites.
