Greetings, we started the assembly of a small bacterial genome from 1 SMRT PacBio run last night on Amazon EC2 services using HGAP. Just wondering if anyone else out there has tried this, and could provide a time estimate for assembly. There were 87000 post-filtered post filter polymerase read length ~4700bp. The tutorial I watched used optimized E. coli reads with several SMRT cells on a multi-CPU computer, they said it would take ~few hours...

What size instance are you using? are you using the HGAP.1, or HGAP.2 protocol? Viewing the log, top right on the job page will give you a % complete estimate. Also viewing ./common/userdate/jobs/<job id>/workflow/Workflow.summary.html will give you a detailed view of the tasks that have complete, and what is remaining to be ran.

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...10-14-2026, 09:55 AM -
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...
