Archiving next generation sequencing data

Next generation sequencing platforms are producing biological sequencing data in unprecedented amounts. The partners of the International Nucleotide Sequencing Database Collaboration, which includes the National Center for Biotechnology Information (NCBI), the European Bioinformatics Institute (EBI), and the DNA Data Bank of Japan (DDBJ), have established the Sequence Read Archive (SRA) to prov...

Object Models for the World Wide Web

The World Wide Web was designed mainly for viewing documents, which nowadays necessitates inelegant software engineering for developing interactive applications. Improving the current Web’s simple distributed object system by introducing more sophisticated object-oriented concepts can facilitate Web application development. The general idea of web object models is depicted, current technologies...

Manipulation of FASTQ data with Galaxy

SUMMARY Here, we describe a tool suite that functions on all of the commonly known FASTQ format variants and provides a pipeline for manipulating next generation sequencing data taken from a sequencing machine all the way through the quality filtering steps. AVAILABILITY AND IMPLEMENTATION This open-source toolset was implemented in Python and has been integrated into the online data analysis...
