NanoForms: an integrated server for processing, analysis and assembly of raw sequencing data of microbial genomes, from Oxford Nanopore technology.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Next Generation Sequencing (NGS) techniques dominate today's landscape of genetics and genomics research. Though Illumina still dominates worldwide sequencing, Oxford Nanopore is one of the leading technologies currently being used by biologists, medics and geneticists across various applications. Oxford Nanopore is automated and relatively simple for conducting experiments, but generates gigabytes of raw data, to be processed by often ambiguous set of alternative bioinformatics command-line tools, and genomics frameworks which require a knowledge of bioinformatics to run.

Results

We established an inter-collegiate collaboration across experimentalists and bioinformaticians in order to provide a novel bioinformatics tool, free for academics. This tool allows peopl
