NGS Bioinformatics Workshop 2.1 Tutorial – Next Generation Sequencing and Sequence Assembly Algorithms May 3rd, 2012 IRMACS 10900 Facilitator: Richard Bruskiewich Adjunct Professor, MBB Agenda Data format review (and some associated tools) Revisit Galaxy Revisit data visualization FASTQ FASTQ – FASTA “with an attitude” (embedded quality scores). Originally developed at the Sanger to couple (Phred) quality data with sequence, it is now common to specify raw read output data from NGS machines in this format. @EAS54_6_R1_2_1_443_348 Various flavors: fastq-sanger fastq-illumina fastq-solexa GTTGCTTCTGGCGTGGGTGGGGGGG +EAS54_6_R1_2_1_443_348 *-+*''))**55CCF>>>>>>CCCC Differing in the format of the sequence identifier and in the valid range of quality scores.

Bioinformatics, 25, 2078-9. http://picard.sourceforge.net/ The Picard command-line tools are packaged as executable jar files. They require Java 1.6. They can be invoked as follows: java jvm-args -jar PicardCommand.jar OPTION1=value1 OPTION2=value2... Most of the commands are designed to run in 2GB of JVM, so the JVM argument Xmx2g is recommended. http://picard.sourceforge.net/command-line-overview.shtml Getting & Running Picard… Obtain archive using project “Download” link Extract zip file to sensible location Ensure that you have Java 6 on your machine Run from command shell as indicated http://hannonlab.cshl.edu/fastx_toolkit/ Linux, MacOSX or Unix only Visualization of NGS Data - Standalone http://www.broadinstitute.org/igv/ Visualization of NGS Data – Web Site http://gmod.org/wiki/GBrowse_NGS_Tutorial 2.1 Next Generation Sequencing and Sequence Assembly Algorithms GALAXY REVISITED Learning about Galaxy Extensive web resources available: http://wiki.g2.bx.psu.edu/Learn/ Getting started: “Galaxy 101” Other screencasts Information pages about dataset management, tool usage and data visualization Published pages/protocols: https://main.g2.bx.psu.edu/page/list_published Logging into Galaxy @ WestGrid https://joffre.westgrid.ca/galaxy/ Accessing the Westgrid Galaxy instance Use your Westgrid ID (email name without @part) to log into Joffre, e.g. if your email is ‘rbruskie@sfu.ca’, your server access id is ‘rbruskie’, and use your WestGrid password Logging into the Galaxy instance Once into Galaxy, you need to register (initially) or log in (if already registered) using your username (your full email, e.g. ‘rbruskie@sfu.ca’) and (important!) use your WestGrid password as the Galaxy password Small issue for access through IE? We will run through “Galaxy 101” https://main.g2.bx.psu.edu/galaxy101 Try it! Ask questions along the way…. Some sensible steps for processing NGS data Obtain the data (i.e. upload to Galaxy) Assess quality of read data Convert reads to convenient form (fastq?) Filter out questionable data: low quality, vector Process to integrate de novo assembly: Allpaths, ABySS, Velvet, SOAPdenovo, etc., or… Map onto reference: SAM, Bowtie, MAQ, etc. Clean up and visualize
