Oases 0.2.09 – De novo Transcriptome Assembler for very short reads

Oases 0.2.09

:: DESCRIPTION

Oases designed to heuristically assemble RNA-seq reads in the absence of a reference genome, across a broad spectrum of expression values and in presence of alternative isoforms. It achieves this by using an array of hash lengths, a dynamic filtering of noise, a robust resolution of alternative splicing events, and the efficient merging of multiple assemblies. It was tested on human and mouse RNA-seq data and is shown to improve significantly on the transABySS and Trinity de novo transcriptome assemblers.

HyLiTE 2.0.2 – Analyzes Transcriptome data from Allopolyploid Species

HyLiTE 2.0.2

:: DESCRIPTION

HyLiTE (Hybrid Lineage Transcriptome Explorer) analyzes transcriptome data from allopolyploid species. Allopolyploidy describes the formation of a new hybrid organism from the union of two or more different parents. Allopolyploid species carry multiple copies of each gene (homeologs), which often exhibit unusual expression patterns. Homeolog expression levels can be determined from next generation sequencing data (RNA-seq), but in practice, assigning reads to one homeolog over another is extremely challenging, particularly on a whole-genome scale. HyLiTE automates this process, and allows gene expression patterns to be explored even in very complex allopolyploid species.
