SOAP: short oligonucleotide alignment program
نویسندگان
چکیده
SUMMARY We have developed a program SOAP for efficient gapped and ungapped alignment of short oligonucleotides onto reference sequences. The program is designed to handle the huge amounts of short reads generated by parallel sequencing using the new generation Illumina-Solexa sequencing technology. SOAP is compatible with numerous applications, including single-read or pair-end resequencing, small RNA discovery and mRNA tag sequence mapping. SOAP is a command-driven program, which supports multi-threaded parallel computing, and has a batch module for multiple query sets. AVAILABILITY http://soap.genomics.org.cn.

متن کاملSOAP2: an improved ultrafast tool for short read alignment
SUMMARY SOAP2 is a significantly improved version of the short oligonucleotide alignment program that both reduces computer memory usage and increases alignment speed at an unprecedented rate. We used a Burrows Wheeler Transformation (BWT) compression index to substitute the seed strategy for indexing the reference sequence in the main memory. We tested it on the whole human genome and found th...
متن کاملConsensus-degenerate hybrid oligonucleotide primers for amplification of distantly related sequences.
We describe a new primer design strategy for PCR amplification of unknown targets that are related to multiply-aligned protein sequences. Each primer consists of a short 3' degenerate core region and a longer 5' consensus clamp region. Only 3-4 highly conserved amino acid residues are necessary for design of the core, which is stabilized by the clamp during annealing to template molecules. Duri...

PCR amplification using COnsensus DEgenerate Hybrid Oligonucleotide Primers (CODEHOPs) has proven to be highly effective for identifying unknown pathogens and characterizing novel genes. We describe iCODEHOP; a new interactive web application that simplifies the process of designing and selecting CODEHOPs from multiply-aligned protein sequences. iCODEHOP intelligently guides the user through th...
متن کاملTargetFinder: a software for antisense oligonucleotide target site selection based on MAST and secondary structures of target mRNA
UNLABELLED TargetFinder is a PC/Windows program for interactive effective antisense oligonucleotide (AO) selection based on mRNA accessible site tagging (MAST) and secondary structures of target mRNA. To make MAST result intuitive, both the alignment result and tag frequency profile is illustrated. As theoretical reference, secondary structure and single strand probability profile of target mRN...
