SHE-RA
:: DESCRIPTION
The SHERA software turns error-prone short reads into Sanger-quality composite reads by aligning the overlapping ends of each matepair. Given a library of appropriately-sized inserts, paired-end reads of each insert overlap in the middle, and can be aligned to produce a longer, more accurate composite read, extending the scope of applications for high throughput shortread sequencing.
