NGS is a web portal designed to provide access to the software environment for dealing with NGS data.
The bioinformatics services we offer include:
- Storage facilities for sequencing raw data (e.g. images)
- Genome mapping of sequence reads (single and paired-ends)
- Sequence reads assembly and contig generation
- Gene calling of mapped reads for digital analysis of gene expression
- Identification of structural genome variants by using long paired-end sequencing
- Analysis of ChIP-Seq data
- Epigenetic analyses and SNPs detection
Actually the services are available to our users through command line clients that launch the program suites.
We are also developing a user-friendly web portal that allow to select on the internet the pipeline of interest.
Some examples of pipeline are listed below:
Example 1
- Input: short reads
- Analysis: genome mapping
- Output: genome mapping coordinates
Example 2
- Input: genome mapping coordinates
- Analysis: Cross−analysys with genome annotations (RNA−Seq) or Peak−finding (Chip-Seq or RIP-Seq)
- Output: expressed genes with tag quantification (for RNA−Seq analyses) or enrichment peaks (forChip-Seq or RIP-Seq analyses) Mapping
Example 3
- Input: short reads
- Analysis: Assembling
- Output: assembled contigs
Example 4
- Input: short reads
- Analysis: detection of SNPs or Editing sites
- Output: List of SNPs (or editing sites) and statistical support
All alignment programs have been optimized on our hardware facilities to perform a whole analysis of raw data or short read sequences in parallel on several computing nodes. This guarantee to provide to the users a prompt answer (the whole bioinformatics data analysis can be performed in two or three days).
