Abstract:
While the sequencing of bacterial genomes has become a routine procedure at major sequencing centers, there are still a number of genome projects at small- or medium-size facilities. For these facilities a maximum of control over sequencing, assembling and finishing is essential. At the same time, facilities have to be able to co-operate at minimum costs for the overall project. We have established a pipeline for the distributed sequencing of Alcanivorax borkumensis SK2, Azoarcus sp. BH72, Clavibacter michiganensis subsp. michiganensis NCPPB382, Sorangium cellulosum So ce56 and Xanthomonas campestris pv. vesicatoria 85-10. Our pipeline relies on standard tools (e.g. PHRED/PHRAP, CAP3 and Consed/Autofinish) wherever possible, supplementing them with new tools (BioMake and BACCardI) to achieve the aims described above.
