A Pipeline NanoTRF as a New Tool for De Novo Satellite DNA Identification in the Raw Nanopore Sequencing Reads of Plant Genomes
High-copy tandemly organized repeats (TRs), or satellite DNA, is an important but still enigmatic component of eukaryotic genomes. TRs comprise arrays of multi-copy and highly similar tandem repeats, which makes the elucidation of TRs a very challenging task. Oxford Nanopore sequencing data provide...

Summary: | High-copy tandemly organized repeats (TRs), or satellite DNA, is an important but still enigmatic component of eukaryotic genomes. TRs comprise arrays of multi-copy and highly similar tandem repeats, which makes the elucidation of TRs a very challenging task. Oxford Nanopore sequencing data provide a valuable source of information on TR organization at the single molecule level. However, bioinformatics tools for de novo identification of TRs in raw Nanopore data have not been reported so far. We developed NanoTRF, a new python pipeline for TR repeat identification, characterization and consensus monomer sequence assembly. This new pipeline requires only a raw Nanopore read file from low-depth ( |
