    Valid tools to use for Detecting SV/CNV in Whole Exome Data

    I am working on whole exome data. i have 7 samples but no matching normal sample. i am to detect SV/CNV variant for these samples.
    The sequencing platform is Illumina and i have BAM files ready for variant calling.
    Are the tools PINDEL , BREAKSEQ and CNVnator Appropriate for Whole Exome Sequencing data without matching normal sample? i have tried ready the tool publication but they only refer to NGS data, not Exome Data Compatibility in Specific. If possible are any other tools available for WES Data without matching Normal!
    NEED HELP!!!!!!!

    If you have paired-end data, you can use BreakDancer without normal sample, but it is produce more false positives.

      The DNASTAR Genomics Suite provides an assembler than can align multiple exomes on a desktop computer and produce BAM file output. The output BAM files can be analyzed in ArrayStar for variants, including CNV and do not require a "Normal" control. There are free 30-day demo you can request from their website.

        Look here: http://www.biostars.org/p/13807/

        Breakdancer and Pindel will not really work because most breakpoints are not captured by exome capture sequencing. You will need an approach based on coverage and/or heterozygous SNP allele frequencies.

          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
