HLAreporter 1.03 – HLA Typing from Next Generation Sequencing data

HLAreporter 1.03

:: DESCRIPTION

HLAreporter (HLA reporter) is a novel tool  for HLA typing from NGS data based on read-mapping using a comprehensive reference panel containing all known HLA alleles, followed by de novo assembly of the gene-specific short reads.

RetroSeq 1.41 – Transposable Element Discovery from Next-generation sequencing data

RetroSeq 1.41

:: DESCRIPTION

RetroSeq is 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.

ZOOM 1.5 – Next Generation Sequencing Data Mapping and Visualization

ZOOM 1.5

:: DESCRIPTION

ZOOM (Zillions Of Oligos Mapped) is a next generation sequencing data mapping and visualization software. Using ZOOM, zillions of short reads are mapped back to reference genomes, including post-analysis at unparalleled in speed, at full sensitivity.1 Throughout the next few pages, ZOOM’s features, capabilities, even benchmarking will be presented, to provide researchers with as much information about the software as possible.
