ExPANdS Resource Report Resource Website 500+ mentions |
ExPANdS (RRID:SCR_005199) | ExPANdS | software resource | Software that characterizes coexisting subpopulations (SPs) in a tumor using copy number and allele frequencies derived from exome- or whole genome sequencing input data. The model amplifies the statistical power to detect coexisting genotypes, by fully exploiting run-specific tradeoffs between depth of coverage and breadth of coverage. ExPANdS predicts the number of clonal expansions, the size of the resulting SPs in the tumor bulk, the mutations specific to each SP and tumor purity. The main function runExPANdS provides the complete functionality needed to predict coexisting SPs from single nucleotide variations (SNVs) and associated copy numbers. The robustness of the subpopulation predictions by ExPANdS increases with the number of mutations provided. It is recommended that at least 200 mutations are used as an input to obtain stable results. | copy number, allele, frequency, exome, whole genome, sequencing, ploidy, subpopulation, genotype, mutation, single nucleotide variation |

iReckon Resource Report Resource Website 1+ mentions |
iReckon (RRID:SCR_005232) | iReckon | software resource | An algorithm for the simultaneous isoform reconstruction and abundance estimation. In addition to modelling novel isoforms, multi-mapped reads and read duplicates, this method takes into account the possible presence of unspliced pre-mRNA and intron retention. iReckon only requires a set of transcription start and end sites, but can use known full isoforms to improve sensitivity. Starting from the set of nearly all possible isoforms, iReckon uses a regularized EM algorithm to determine those actually present in the sequenced sample, together with their abundances. iReckon is multi-threaded to increase efficiency in all its time consuming steps. |

SomaticSniper Resource Report Resource Website 100+ mentions |
SomaticSniper (RRID:SCR_005108) | SomaticSniper | software resource | Software program to identify single nucleotide positions that are different between tumor and normal (or, in theory, any two bam files). It takes a tumor bam and a normal bam and compares the two to determine the differences. It outputs a file in a format very similar to Samtools consensus format. It uses the genotype likelihood model of MAQ (as implemented in Samtools) and then calculates the probability that the tumor and normal genotypes are different. This probability is reported as a somatic score. The somatic score is the Phred-scaled probability (between 0 to 255) that the Tumor and Normal genotypes are not different where 0 means there is no probability that the genotypes are different and 255 means there is a probability of 1 ? 10(255/-10) that the genotypes are different between tumor and normal. This is consistent with how the SAM format reports such probabilities. It is currently available as source code via github or as a Debian APT package. |

comrad Resource Report Resource Website 1+ mentions |
comrad (RRID:SCR_005101) | comrad | software resource | A novel algorithmic framework for the integrated analysis of RNA-Seq and Whole Genome Shotgun Sequencing (WGSS) data for the purposes of discovering genomic rearrangements and aberrant transcripts. The Comrad framework leverages the advantages of both RNA-Seq and WGSS data, providing accurate classification of rearrangements as expressed or not expressed and accurate classification of the genomic or non-genomic origin of aberrant transcripts. A major benefit of Comrad is its ability to accurately identify aberrant transcripts and associated rearrangements using low coverage genome data. As a result, a Comrad analysis can be performed at a cost comparable to that of two RNA-Seq experiments, significantly lower than an analysis requiring high coverage genome data. | is listed by: OMICtools | Open unspecified license | OMICS_01344 | SCR_005101 | SciCrunch Registry | comrad - Discovery of gene fusions using paired end RNA-Seq and WGSS | 2026-10-10 12:36:59 | 6 | ||||||||

Breakpointer Resource Report Resource Website 10+ mentions |
Breakpointer (RRID:SCR_005254) | Breakpointer | software resource | A fast tool for locating sequence breakpoints from the alignment of single end reads (SE) produced by next generation sequencing (NGS). It adopts a heuristic method in searching for local mapping signatures created by insertion/deletions (indels) or more complex structural variants(SVs). With current NGS single-end sequencing data, the output regions by Breakpoint mainly contain the approximate breakpoints of indels and a limited number of large SVs. Notably, Breakpointer can uncover breakpoints of insertions which are longer than the read length. Breakpointer also can find breakpoints of many variants located in repetitive regions. The regions can be used not only as a extra support for SV predictions by other tools (such as by split-read method), but also can serve as a database for searching variants which might be missed by other tools. Breakpointer is a command line tool that runs under linux system. Breakpointer takes advanage of two local mapping features of single-end reads as a consequence of indel/SVs: 1) non-uniform read distribution (depth skewness) and 2) misalignments at the boundaries of indel/SVs. These features are summarized as breakpoint signature. Breakpointer proceeds in three stages in capturing this signature. It is implemented in C++ and perl. Input is the file or files containing alignments of single-end reads against a reference genome (in .BAM format). Output is the predicted regions containing potential breakpoints of SVs (in .GFF format). To be able to read in .BAM files, Breakpointer requires bamtools API, which users should install beforehand. | next-generation sequencing, c++, perl, bio.tools |

Clippers Resource Report Resource Website 1+ mentions |
Clippers (RRID:SCR_005256) | Clippers | software resource | A software program designed to identify long deletions of a genome as well as the RNA splicings using long Illumina reads. Currently, Clippers is implemented for long reads Illumina, ex: 75bp or 100bp, allowing mismatches and a single deletion/splicing. Clippers is a sister tool of PerM, our short reads aligner. Users are strongly suggested to use PerM to initially mapped reads and identify the deletion/splicing with the initially unmapped reads. We plan to extend it to ABI SOLiD reads in the near future. Clippers outputs gap-alignments in SAM format. You can use SAMtools or other program to interpret the deletion/splicing. The input files are a reference in fasta format and the reads is in fasta or fastq format. | long deletion, genome, rna splicing, illumina, deletion |
