Computational methods for optical mapping

چکیده
Optical mapping and newer genome mapping technologies based on nicking enzymes provide low resolution but long-range genomic information. The optical mapping technique has been successfully used for assessing the quality of genome assemblies and for detecting large-scale structural variants and rearrangements that cannot be detected using current paired end sequencing protocols. Here, we review several algorithms and methods for building consensus optical maps and aligning restriction patterns to a reference map, as well as methods for using optical maps with sequence assemblies.

OMTools: a software package for visualizing and processing optical mapping data
Summary Optical mapping is a molecular technique capturing specific patterns of fluorescent labels along DNA molecules. It has been widely applied in assisted-scaffolding in sequence assemblies, microbial strain typing and detection of structural variations. Various computational methods have been developed to analyze optical mapping data. However, existing tools for processing and visualizing ...
متن کاملFUZZY FRACTIONAL PARTIAL DIFFERENTIAL EQUATIONS IN PARTIALLY ORDERED METRIC SPACES
In this paper, we consider fuzzy fractional partial differential equations under Caputo generalized Hukuhara differentiability. Some new results on the existence and uniqueness of two types of fuzzy solutions are studied via weakly contractive mapping in the partially ordered metric space. Some application examples are presented to illustrate our main results.
متن کاملMisassembly detection using paired-end sequence reads and optical mapping data
MOTIVATION A crucial problem in genome assembly is the discovery and correction of misassembly errors in draft genomes. We develop a method called misSEQuel that enhances the quality of draft genomes by identifying misassembly errors and their breakpoints using paired-end sequence reads and optical mapping data. Our method also fulfills the critical need for open source computational methods fo...
متن کاملA Quantile Method for Sizing Optical Maps
Optical mapping is an integrated system for the analysis of single DNA molecules. It constructs restriction maps (noted as "optical map" ) from individual DNA molecules presented on surfaces after they are imaged by fluorescence microscopy. Because restriction digestion and fluorochrome staining are performed after molecules are mounted, resulting restriction fragments retain their order. Maps ...
متن کاملAll‐optical control of cardiac excitation: combined high‐resolution optogenetic actuation and optical mapping
Cardiac tissue is an excitable system that can support complex spatiotemporal dynamics, including instabilities (arrhythmias) with lethal consequences. While over the last two decades optical mapping of excitation (voltage and calcium dynamics) has facilitated the detailed characterization of such arrhythmia events, until recently, no precise tools existed to actively interrogate cardiac dynami...
