Transcriptome assembly from RNA-Seq reads is an active area of bioinformatics research. The ever-declining cost and the increasing depth of RNA-Seq have provided unprecedented opportunities to better identify expressed transcripts. However,…

RNA-seq allows detection and precise quantification of transcripts, provides comprehensive understanding of exon/intron boundaries, aids discovery of alternatively spliced isoforms and fusion transcripts along with measurement of…

The high-throughput short-reads RNA-seq protocols often produce paired-end reads, with the middle portion of the fragments being unsequenced. We explore if the full-length fragments can be computationally reconstructed from the sequenced…

De novo genome assembly is the process of stitching short DNA sequences to generate longer DNA sequences, without using any reference sequence for alignment. It enables high-throughput genome sequencing and thus accelerates the discovery of…

Motivation: RNA-seq has made feasible the analysis of a whole set of expressed mRNAs. Mapping-based assembly of RNA-seq reads sometimes is infeasible due to lack of high-quality references. However, de novo assembly is very challenging due…

RNA-sequencing (RNA-seq) has become an exemplar technology in modern biology and clinical applications over the past decade. It has gained immense popularity in the recent years driven by continuous efforts of the bioinformatics community…

The main challenge in de novo assembly of NGS data is certainly to deal with repeats that are longer than the reads. This is particularly true for RNA- seq data, since coverage information cannot be used to flag repeated sequences, of which…

The study of functional genomics--particularly in non-model organisms has been dramatically improved over the last few years by use of transcriptomes and RNAseq. While these studies are potentially extremely powerful, a computationally…

De novo genome assembly is challenging in highly repetitive regions; however, reference-guided assemblers often suffer from bias. We propose a framework for pangenome-guided sequence assembly, which can resolve short-read data in complex…

High-throughput cDNA sequencing (RNA-seq) is a very powerful technique to quantify gene expression in an unbiased way. The Crustacean family is among the groups of organisms sparsely represented in current genomic databases. Here we present…

Single-cell RNA-sequencing (scRNA-seq) stands as a powerful tool for deciphering cellular heterogeneity and exploring gene expression profiles at high resolution. However, its high cost renders it impractical for extensive sample cohorts…

RNA-Seq technology offers new high-throughput ways for transcript identification and quantification based on short reads, and has recently attracted great interest. The problem is usually modeled by a weighted splicing graph whose nodes…

De novo assembly is the process of reconstructing the genome sequence of an organism from sequencing reads. Genome sequences are essential to biology, and assembly has been a central problem in bioinformatics for four decades. Until…

The de novo assembly of large, complex genomes is a significant challenge with currently available DNA sequencing technology. While many de novo assembly software packages are available, comparatively little attention has been paid to…

Currently, third-generation sequencing techniques, which allow to obtain much longer DNA reads compared to the next-generation sequencing technologies, are becoming more and more popular. There are many possibilities to combine data from…

Recent advances in high-throughput cDNA sequencing (RNA-Seq) technology have revolutionized transcriptome studies. A major motivation for RNA-Seq is to map the structure of expressed transcripts at nucleotide resolution. With accurate…

Assessing the correctness of genome assemblies is an important step in any genome project. Several methods exist, but most are computationally intensive and, in some cases, inappropriate. Here I present baa.pl, a fast and easy-to-use…

The newly developed deep-sequencing technologies make it possible to acquire both quantitative and qualitative information regarding transcript biology. By measuring messenger RNA levels for all genes in a sample, RNA-seq provides an…

The ability to characterize proteins at sequence-level resolution is vital to biological research. Currently, the leading method for protein sequencing is by liquid chromatography mass spectrometry (LC-MS) whereas proteins are reduced to…

RNA sequencing (RNA-seq) enables characterization and quantification of individual transcriptomes as well as detection of patterns of allelic expression and alternative splicing. Current RNA-seq protocols depend on high-throughput…
