RNA-seq03:21

RNA-seq

9.9K
RNA sequencing, or RNA-Seq, is a high-throughput sequencing technology used to study the transcriptome of a cell. Transcriptomics helps to interpret the functional elements of a genome and identify the molecular constituents of an organism. Additionally, it also helps in understanding the development of an organism and the occurrence of diseases. 
Before the discovery of RNA-seq, microarray-based methods and Sanger sequencing were used for transcriptome analysis. However, while...

Comparing Copy Number Variations and SNPs

17.7K
Sequencing of the human genome has opened up several best-kept secrets of the genome. Scientists have identified thousands of genome variations that exist within a population. These variations can be a single nucleotide or a larger chromosomal variation.
Copy number variations or CNVs are the structural variations that cover more than 1kb of DNA sequence. The single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP), on the other hand, is a single nucleotide change or a point mutation that is found in more than 1%...

Next-generation Sequencing

88.6K
The first human genome sequencing project cost $2.7 billion and was declared complete in 2003, after 15 years of international cooperation and collaboration between several research teams and funding agencies. Today, with the advent of next-generation sequencing technologies, the cost and time of sequencing a human genome have dropped over 100 fold.

Sanger Sequencing

754.0K
DNA sequencing is a fundamental technique that is routinely used in the biological sciences. This method can be applied to a range of questions at different scales - from the sequencing of a cloned DNA fragment or the study of a mutation in a gene up to whole-genome sequencing. However, despite the widespread use of sequencing today, it was not until 1977 that Fredrick Sanger and his collaborators developed the chain-termination method to decode DNA sequences. It relies on the separation of a...

Single Nucleotide Polymorphisms-SNPs

14.9K
A single nucleotide polymorphism or SNP is a single nucleotide variation at a specific genomic position in a large population. It is the most prevalent type of sequence variation found in the human genome. Point mutations that occur in more than 1% of the population qualify as SNPs. These are present once every 1000 nucleotides on an average in the human genome. Replacement of a purine with another purine (A/G) or a pyrimidine with another pyrimidine (C/T) is known as a transition. In contrast,...

Area of Science:

  • Genomics
  • Bioinformatics

Background:

  • Structural variants (SVs) significantly impact phenotypes and disease.
  • Accurate SV detection is crucial for genetic analysis.

Purpose of the Study:

  • Introduce HapKled, a novel tool for accurate SV detection.
  • Utilize haplotype information from long-read sequencing data (Oxford Nanopore Technologies).
  • Improve SV detection performance by integrating haplotype-aware mechanics.

Main Methods:

  • HapKled employs haplotype-tagging using Whatshap on reads.
  • Incorporates three unique calling mechanics: haplotype-informed clustering, SV similarity determination, and haplotype quality-based filtering.
  • Evaluated on simulated and real sequencing data.

Main Results:

  • HapKled demonstrated superior performance compared to state-of-the-art tools.
  • Achieved improved SV detection results on both simulated and real-world data.
  • Code and experimental data are publicly available.
