  • Mapping cDNA's to assembly

    I've got a partial assembly of a low coverage genome (about 250k contigs) and a set of assembled cDNAs I'd like to map to those contigs to get a first guess as to where the introns lie, etc-. Is there a nice piece of software that'll do that relatively quickly? I suppose I could do it with several rounds of blast, or even script a pipeline that makes a blast DB from each assembled genome contig and runs the cnda against it, but I figured I'd ask here first. Visualization would also be a nice plus...

    Thanks!

    Blast would be an option and you can then use the script blast2sam.pl from samtools to get the sam version and vizualise with IGV

      I find BLAT has a better understanding of spliced alignments

      I use Don Gilbert's blat2gff.pl and view in gbrowse

        Don't know if it's relevent but I just read the BWA for long read paper. you could have a look at that

          mgalign also has a much better understanding of spliced alignments than BLAST.

          I used this to annotate a velvet assembly and was quite pleased at the results. The output is easily translated to genepred or bed formats.

            Quality Control Essentials for Next-Generation Sequencing Workflows
            by seqadmin




            Like all molecular biology applications, next-generation sequencing (NGS) workflows require diligent quality control (QC) measures to ensure accurate and reproducible results. Proper QC begins at nucleic acid extraction and continues all the way through to data analysis. This article outlines the key QC steps in an NGS workflow, along with the commonly used tools and techniques.
