Picard is a set of Java command line tools for manipulating high-throughput sequencing (HTS) data and formats. Picard is implemented using the HTSJDK Java library to support accessing file formats that are commonly used for high-throughput sequencing data such as SAM, BAM, CRAM and VCF.

Jellyfish is a tool for fast, memory-efficient counting of k-mers in DNA. A k-mer is a substring of length k, and counting the occurrences of all such substrings is a central step in many analyses of DNA sequence. Jellyfish is a command-line program that reads FASTA and multi-FASTA files containing DNA sequences. It outputs its k-mer counts in a binary format, which can be translated into a human-readable text format using the jellyfish dump command, or queried for specific k-mers with jellyfish query.

This package provides version 1.12 of the HTSlib C library for high-throughput sequence analysis. The package is primarily useful to developers of other R packages who wish to make use of HTSlib.

BWA is a software package for mapping low-divergent sequences against a large reference genome, such as the human genome. It consists of three algorithms: BWA-backtrack, BWA-SW and BWA-MEM. The first algorithm is designed for Illumina sequence reads up to 100bp, while the rest two for longer sequences ranged from 70bp to 1Mbp. BWA-MEM and BWA-SW share similar features such as long-read support and split alignment, but BWA-MEM, which is the latest, is generally recommended for high-quality queries as it is faster and more accurate. BWA-MEM also has better performance than BWA-backtrack for 70-100bp Illumina reads.

This package offers a flexible statistical simulator for scRNA-seq data. It can generate data that captures gene correlation. Additionally, it allows for varying the number of cells and sequencing depth.

This package provides an automated pipeline for spatial mapping of unique transcripts.

This package converts the output of the Sailfish and Salmon RNA-seq quantification tools so that it can be used with the Sleuth differential analysis package.

A tandem repeat in DNA is two or more adjacent, approximate copies of a pattern of nucleotides. Tandem Repeats Finder is a program to locate and display tandem repeats in DNA sequences. In order to use the program, the user submits a sequence in FASTA format. The output consists of two files: a repeat table file and an alignment file. Submitted sequences may be of arbitrary length. Repeats with pattern size in the range from 1 to 2000 bases are detected.

Cell2cell is a Python library for cell communication analysis. This is a method to calculate, visualize and analyze communication between cell types. Cell2cell is suitable for single-cell RNA sequencing (scRNA-seq) data.

PiGx is a collection of genomics pipelines. It includes the following pipelines:

• PiGx BSseq for raw fastq read data of bisulfite experiments

• PiGx RNAseq for RNAseq samples

• PiGx scRNAseq for single cell dropseq analysis

• PiGx ChIPseq for reads from ChIPseq experiments

All pipelines are easily configured with a simple sample sheet and a descriptive settings file. The result is a set of comprehensive, interactive HTML reports with interesting findings about your samples.

This package provides a client for the OmniPath web service and many other resources. It also includes functions to transform and pretty print some of the downloaded data, functions to access a number of other resources such as BioPlex, ConsensusPathDB, EVEX, Gene Ontology, Guide to Pharmacology (IUPHAR/BPS), Harmonizome, HTRIdb, Human Phenotype Ontology, InWeb InBioMap, KEGG Pathway, Pathway Commons, Ramilowski et al. 2015, RegNetwork, ReMap, TF census, TRRUST and Vinayagam et al. 2011. Furthermore, OmnipathR features a close integration with the NicheNet method for ligand activity prediction from transcriptomics data, and its R implementation nichenetr.

FLASH (Fast Length Adjustment of SHort reads) is a tool to merge paired-end reads from next-generation sequencing experiments. FLASH is designed to merge pairs of reads when the original DNA fragments are shorter than twice the length of reads. The resulting longer reads can significantly improve genome assemblies. They can also improve transcriptome assembly when FLASH is used to merge RNA-seq data.

This package provides different statistical methods to extract biological activities from omics data within a unified framework.

Sjcount is a utility for fast quantification of splice junctions in RNA-seq data. It is annotation-agnostic and offset-aware. This version does count multisplits.

R-scape discovers RNA secondary structure consensus elements. These elements include riboswitches and ribozymes. It utilizes probabilistic modeling of sequence alignments, explicitly considering folding dependencies. The tool enables the de novo search for new structural elements and facilitates comparative analysis of known RNA families.

eXpress is a streaming tool for quantifying the abundances of a set of target sequences from sampled subsequences. Example applications include transcript-level RNA-Seq quantification, allele-specific/haplotype expression analysis (from RNA-Seq), transcription factor binding quantification in ChIP-Seq, and analysis of metagenomic data.

LoFreq is a fast and sensitive variant-caller for inferring SNVs and indels from next-generation sequencing data. It makes full use of base-call qualities and other sources of errors inherent in sequencing (e.g. mapping or base/indel alignment uncertainty), which are usually ignored by other methods or only used for filtering.
