Introduction to Structural variant detection analyses


This course offers an introduction to SNP and SV detection data analysis by using advantages of short and long sequencing technologies.

Prerequisites

Linux and knowledge of NGS formats Patience and perseverance

Program

  • Handling mapping tools suitable for ILLUMINA and ONT data (bwa, minimap2)
  • SNP detection from mapping of short reads against a reference genome: SNP calling, filters and SNP annotation. Examples of possible studies based on SNP arrays
  • Detecting Structural Variations (SV) in short and long reads (breakdancer, sniffle)
  • SV detection from genome assembly and comparison (minimap2, nucmer, assemblytics, siry)

Learning objectives

  • Understanding limits and advantages of sequencing technology for SV detection
  • Manipulating short and long reads data on a virtual machine on jupyter environment
  • Handling mapping, SNP calling and SV detection tools and be able to analyse your own data
  • Detecting structural variations comparing assemblies.
