Software tools for visualizing Hi-C data.

Project description:High-throughput assays for measuring the three-dimensional (3D) configuration of DNA have provided unprecedented insights into the relationship between DNA 3D configuration and function. Data interpretation from assays such as ChIA-PET and Hi-C is challenging because the data is large and cannot be easily rendered using standard genome browsers. An effective Hi-C visualization tool must provide several visualization modes and be capable of viewing the data in conjunction with existing, complementary data. We review five software tools that do not require programming expertise. We summarize their complementary functionalities, and highlight which tool is best equipped for specific tasks.

XLink-DB: database and software tools for storing and visualizing protein interaction topology data.

Project description:As large-scale cross-linking data becomes available, new software tools for data processing and visualization are required to replace manual data analysis. XLink-DB serves as a data storage site and visualization tool for cross-linking results. XLink-DB accepts data generated with any cross-linker and stores them in a relational database. Cross-linked sites are automatically mapped onto PDB structures if available, and results are compared to existing protein interaction databases. A protein interaction network is also automatically generated for the entire data set. The XLink-DB server, including examples, and a help page are available for noncommercial use at http://brucelab.gs.washington.edu/crosslinkdbv1/ . The source code can be viewed and downloaded at https://sourceforge.net/projects/crosslinkdb/?source=directory .

plotnineSeqSuite: a Python package for visualizing sequence data using ggplot2 style.

Project description:BackgroundThe visual sequence logo has been a hot area in the development of bioinformatics tools. ggseqlogo written in R language has been the most popular API since it was published. With the popularity of artificial intelligence and deep learning, Python is currently the most popular programming language. The programming language used by bioinformaticians began to shift to Python. Providing APIs in Python that are similar to those in R can reduce the learning cost of relearning a programming language. And compared to ggplot2 in R, drawing framework is not as easy to use in Python. The appearance of plotnine (ggplot2 in Python version) makes it possible to unify the programming methods of bioinformatics visualization tools between R and Python.ResultsHere, we introduce plotnineSeqSuite, a new plotnine-based Python package provides a ggseqlogo-like API for programmatic drawing of sequence logos, sequence alignment diagrams and sequence histograms. To be more precise, it supports custom letters, color themes, and fonts. Moreover, the class for drawing layers is based on object-oriented design so that users can easily encapsulate and extend it.ConclusionsplotnineSeqSuite is the first ggplot2-style package to implement visualization of sequence -related graphs in Python. It enhances the uniformity of programmatic plotting between R and Python. Compared with tools appeared already, the categories supported by plotnineSeqSuite are much more complete. The source code of plotnineSeqSuite can be obtained on GitHub ( https://github.com/caotianze/plotnineseqsuite ) and PyPI ( https://pypi.org/project/plotnineseqsuite ), and the documentation homepage is freely available on GitHub at ( https://caotianze.github.io/plotnineseqsuite/ ).

A broad survey of DNA sequence data simulation tools.

Project description:In silico DNA sequence generation is a powerful technology to evaluate and validate bioinformatics tools, and accordingly more than 35 DNA sequence simulation tools have been developed. With such a diverse array of tools to choose from, an important question is: Which tool should be used for a desired outcome? This question is largely unanswered as documentation for many of these DNA simulation tools is sparse. To address this, we performed a review of DNA sequence simulation tools developed to date and evaluated 20 state-of-art DNA sequence simulation tools on their ability to produce accurate reads based on their implemented sequence error model. We provide a succinct description of each tool and suggest which tool is most appropriate for the given different scenarios. Given the multitude of similar yet non-identical tools, researchers can use this review as a guide to inform their choice of DNA sequence simulation tool. This paves the way towards assessing existing tools in a unified framework, as well as enabling different simulation scenario analysis within the same framework.

Benchmarking reveals superiority of deep learning variant callers on bacterial nanopore sequence data.

Project description:Variant calling is fundamental in bacterial genomics, underpinning the identification of disease transmission clusters, the construction of phylogenetic trees, and antimicrobial resistance detection. This study presents a comprehensive benchmarking of variant calling accuracy in bacterial genomes using Oxford Nanopore Technologies (ONT) sequencing data. We evaluated three ONT basecalling models and both simplex (single-strand) and duplex (dual-strand) read types across 14 diverse bacterial species. Our findings reveal that deep learning-based variant callers, particularly Clair3 and DeepVariant, significantly outperform traditional methods and even exceed the accuracy of Illumina sequencing, especially when applied to ONT's super-high accuracy model. ONT's superior performance is attributed to its ability to overcome Illumina's errors, which often arise from difficulties in aligning reads in repetitive and variant-dense genomic regions. Moreover, the use of high-performing variant callers with ONT's super-high accuracy data mitigates ONT's traditional errors in homopolymers. We also investigated the impact of read depth on variant calling, demonstrating that 10× depth of ONT super-accuracy data can achieve precision and recall comparable to, or better than, full-depth Illumina sequencing. These results underscore the potential of ONT sequencing, combined with advanced variant calling algorithms, to replace traditional short-read sequencing methods in bacterial genomics, particularly in resource-limited settings.

Systematic Assessment of RNA-Seq Quantification Tools Using Simulated Sequence Data.

Project description:RNA-sequencing (RNA-seq) technology has emerged as the preferred method for quantification of gene and isoform expression. Numerous RNA-seq quantification tools have been proposed and developed, bringing us closer to developing expression-based diagnostic tests based on this technology. However, because of the rapidly evolving technologies and algorithms, it is essential to establish a systematic method for evaluating the quality of RNA-seq quantification. We investigate how different RNA-seq experimental designs (i.e., variations in sequencing depth and read length) affect various quantification algorithms (i.e., HTSeq, Cufflinks, and MISO). Using simulated data, we evaluate the quantification tools based on four metrics, namely: (1) total number of usable fragments for quantification, (2) detection of genes and isoforms, (3) correlation, and (4) accuracy of expression quantification with respect to the ground truth. Results show that Cufflinks is able to use the largest number of fragments for quantification, leading to better detection of genes and isoforms. However, HTSeq produces more accurate expression estimates. Moreover, each quantification algorithm is affected differently by varying sequencing depth and read length, suggesting that the selection of quantification algorithms should be application-dependent.

Bioinformatic tools for tRNA gene analyses in mitochondrial DNA sequence data.

Project description:The data presented here are related to the research article entitled "Hidden cases of tRNA genes duplication and remolding in mitochondrial genomes of amphipods" (Romanova et al., 2020) [1]. Correct tRNA gene sequence annotation in mitochondrial (mt) and nuclear genomes sometimes can be a challenging task because of the differential performances of tRNA annotation/prediction programmes. These programmes may cause false positive or false negative predictions. Moreover, additional difficulties with annotation may be caused by the presence of duplicated tRNA genes and those coding tRNAs with altered identities occurring as due to a mutation in their anticodon sequence (tRNA gene remolding/recruitment). We developed an R script automating the diagnosis of ancestor tRNA gene coding specificity regardless of anticodon sequence based on genetic distance comparison. Some of the predicted tRNA genes from the mt genomes of amphipods are presented. We also developed an R script for estimation of the best mode of sequence alignment, which was applied to determine the best alignment of tRNA genes in [1], but is also suitable for testing of any nucleotide alignment sets used in phylogenetic inferences.
