RGFA: powerful and convenient handling of assembly graphs [PDF]

open access: yesPeerJ, 2016
The “Graphical Fragment Assembly” (GFA) is an emerging format for the representation of sequence assembly graphs, which can be adopted by both de Bruijn graph- and string graph-based assemblers. Here we present RGFA, an implementation of the proposed GFA

Lossless Indexing with Counting de Bruijn Graphs [PDF]

open access: yesGenome Research, 2021
Abstract Sequencing data is rapidly accumulating in public repositories. Making this resource accessible for interactive analysis at scale requires efficient approaches for its storage and indexing. There have recently been remarkable advances in building compressed representations of annotated

The khmer software package: enabling efficient nucleotide sequence analysis [version 1; referees: 2 approved, 1 approved with reservations]

open access: yesF1000Research, 2015
The khmer package is a freely available software library for working efficiently with fixed length DNA words, or k-mers. khmer provides implementations of a probabilistic k-mer counting data structure, a compressible De Bruijn graph representation, De ...

Dynamic construction of pan-genome subgraphs

open access: yesOpen Computer Science, 2020
Marcus et al. (Bioinformatics 2014) proposed to use a compressed de Bruijn graph as a description of a pan-genome, comprising the genomes of many individuals/strains of the same or closely related species. Subsequent work improved the construction of the

A family of tree-based generators for bubbles in directed graphs

open access: yesJournal of Graph Algorithms and Applications, 2021
Bubbles are pairs of internally vertex-disjoint $(s, t)$-paths in a directed graph. In de Bruijn graphs built from reads of RNA and DNA data, bubbles represent interesting biological events, such as alternative splicing (AS) and allelic differences (SNPs

AGORA: Assembly Guided by Optical Restriction Alignment

open access: yesBMC Bioinformatics, 2012
Background Genome assembly is difficult due to repeated sequences within the genome, which create ambiguities and cause the final assembly to be broken up into many separate sequences (contigs).

Properties of the extremal infinite smooth words [PDF]

open access: yesDiscrete Mathematics & Theoretical Computer Science, 2007
Smooth words are connected to the Kolakoski sequence. We construct the maximal and the minimal infinite smooth words, with respect to the lexicographical order.

Efficient parallel and out of core algorithms for constructing large bi-directed de Bruijn graphs

open access: yesBMC Bioinformatics, 2010
Background Assembling genomic sequences from a set of overlapping reads is one of the most fundamental problems in computational biology. Algorithms addressing the assembly problem fall into two broad categories - based on the data structures which they ...

Scalable, ultra-fast, and low-memory construction of compacted de Bruijn graphs with Cuttlefish 2

open access: yesGenome Biology, 2022
The de Bruijn graph is a key data structure in modern computational genomics, and construction of its compacted variant resides upstream of many genomic analyses. As the quantity of genomic data grows rapidly, this often forms a computational bottleneck.

MegaGTA: a sensitive and accurate metagenomic gene-targeted assembler using iterative de Bruijn graphs

open access: yesBMC Bioinformatics, 2017
Background The recent release of the gene-targeted metagenomics assembler Xander has demonstrated that using the trained Hidden Markov Model (HMM) to guide the traversal of de Bruijn graph gives obvious advantage over other assembly methods. Xander, as a
