  • coomercial or open source tool for CNV from sequence data

    I was wondering if some one can point me to a commercial or open source tool to call SNPs as well Copy number variation from Illumina's sequencing data. Thanks.

    You might want to start by looking at the software page. Also, you might get more responses if you can refine your question.

      Hi,
      You can try VarScan, it's a free software, which gives SNP, indel and CNV.
      Good luck,
      Jane

        The GenomeStudio Software package comprises seven discrete application modules that enable you to conveniently compare data from different applications.

          I have a related question: Can the copy number algorithm of VarScan still be used if my tumor and normal data are sequenced to varying depths? Lets says mean tumor depth is 2.5 times mean normal depth.. Is it still useful? If so, how should I modify the command line?

            You might be better off with specific tools for certain aspects of he jobs hat you areatte,ping to do rather than looking for a 'one tool for all jobs, approach, which as far as I'm concerned doesn't really exist!
            For variant calling I would suggest looking at the Broad's V3 exome pipeline and working from there. In addition to the CNV suggestions from above, have a look at CONTRA

              Current Approaches to Protein Sequencing
              by seqadmin


              Proteins are often described as the workhorses of the cell, and identifying their sequences is key to understanding their role in biological processes and disease. Currently, the most common technique used to determine protein sequences is mass spectrometry. While still a valuable tool, mass spectrometry faces several limitations and requires a highly experienced scientist familiar with the equipment to operate it. Additionally, other proteomic methods, like affinity assays, are constrained...

              Strategies for Sequencing Challenging Samples
              by seqadmin


              Despite advancements in sequencing platforms and related sample preparation technologies, certain sample types continue to present significant challenges that can compromise sequencing results. Pedro Echave, Senior Manager of the Global Business Segment at Revvity, explained that the success of a sequencing experiment ultimately depends on the amount and integrity of the nucleic acid template (RNA or DNA) obtained from a sample. “The better the quality of the nucleic acid isolated...
