    Nonsynonymous SNP (nsSNP) discovery tools?

    Hi,
    I have analyzed my Illumina data using Mosaik and generated a list of SNPs using Gigabayes. I would like to look for nonsynonymous SNPs so I filtered the data to limit the analysis to SNPs within Exons (approximately 1500 SNPs). I am now trying to identify which SNPs cause amino acid substitutions (nsSNPs). Are there any analysis tools or pipelines to automate the process of SNP to amino acid substitutions calling? Any help would be greatly appreciated.
    Thanks
    -John

    We use SeqWare: http://sourceforge.net/projects/seqware/ for our whole genome human resequencing. Let me know what you choose so we can also check the other options out.

      I've written some software that can do this for bacteria. Doesn't work with eukaryotes though, various scalability issues yet to be overcome. http://www.vicbioinformatics.com/software.nesoni.shtml

      The approach I took was just to generate all the before and after protein sequences and look for differences. Pretty easy to do in BioPerl/BioPython/etc.

        Multiomic Liquid Biopsy: What DNA/RNA Panels Reveal That DNA Alone Can’t
        by SEQadmin2



        Tumors contain complex mixtures of cell populations that evolve in response to treatment and host-specific factors. Tissue biopsies provide only static snapshots of a tumor’s state. But what if we could follow that evolution over time using a minimally invasive technique?

        Liquid biopsies can detect tumor-derived material circulating in the bloodstream, providing a way to study treatment response, detect emerging resistance, and discover new biomarkers. Circulating

        New Genomics Technologies Take Aim at Long-Standing Limits
        by SEQadmin2


        Researchers using sequencing and genomics tools often have to make trade-offs. They can choose between speed or scale, short reads or long-range information, or targeted panels or a view of the whole transcriptome. New technologies that have been released this year are built to address those tough choices.

        We asked six companies the same four questions to learn about their latest products. The new technologies bring a lot to the table, including rethinking sequencing
