vtools 3.0.4 – Annotate, Summarize and Analyze Next-gen Sequencing Variation data

vtools 3.0.4

:: DESCRIPTION

vtools (variant tools) is a set of tools for annotating and tracking sequence variation for large-scale exome sequencing projects. Unlike some other tools used for Next-Gen sequencing analysis, variant tools is project based and provide a whole set of tools to manipulate and analyze genetic variants.

GZ-gamma – Estimate Parameter of Substitution Rate Variation among Sites

GZ-gamma

:: DESCRIPTION

GZ-gamma is designed to estimate the expected number of substitutions of each amino acid (nucleotide) site, and the gamma shape parameter for the rate variation among sites, using a combination of ancestral sequence inference and maximum likelihood estimation when the phylogenetic relationships of these homologous sequences are known.

GMM – Detects Copy Number Variation from the Distribution of Copy Number Ratios

GMM

:: DESCRIPTION

GMM (Gaussian Mixture Model) detects copy number variation from the distribution of copy number ratios. From the data, it will fit one component for each of the following copy number states: deletion, copy-neutral, 1 and 2 additional copy; with a constraint on the difference between the mixture means. Then for a given individual, it will determine the probabilities for each copy number state and compute the expected copy number (dosage).

CopyMap 0.813 – Localization of Copy Number Variation

CopyMap 0.813

:: DESCRIPTION

CopyMap is a hidden Markov algorithm to infer copy number variation from a sample of hybridization intensities. The program combines the information across individuals by estimating a transition matrix between every pair of markers using a Baum‐Welch algorithm. The algorithm consists of two steps, the first step estimates the underlying parameters, the second step estimates carrier status in each individual based on the estimated parameters

MANVa 0.982b – Multilocus Analysis of Nucleotide Variation

MANVa 0.982b

:: DESCRIPTION

MANVa (Multilocus Analysis of Nucleotide Variation) is designed to:

  1. Analyze empirical data from a single population and an outgroup species (if included). It is designed for analyzing a large number of independent loci.
  2. Subset of regions can be analyzed (synonymous, silent, introns, etc). A GFF file associated to each alignment can be provided.
  3. Perform multilocus coalescent simulations
  4. Calculate the levels of variation by maximum likelihood for the multilocus set.
  5. Do multilocus analyses: calculate probabilities and confidence intervals for the observed data when comparing with simulated data, and calculate percentiles for simulated data.
