SINGLe computes consensus sequence of DNA reads by (noisy) nanopore sequencing. It is focused on long amplicons sequencing, and it aims to the reads of gene libraries, typically used in directed evolution experiments.
SINGLe takes advantage that gene libraries are created from an original wild type or reference sequence, and it characterizes the systematic errors made by nanopore sequencing. Then, uses that information to correct the confidence values (QUAL) assigned to each nucleotide read in the mutants library.
Finally, given that you can identify which variant was read in each case (for example by the use of unique molecular identifiers or DNA barcodes), SINGLe groups them and computes the consensus sequence by weighting the frequencies with the corrected confidence values.
For more details, please refer to our pre-print “Accurate gene consensus at low nanopore coverage” doi: https://doi.org/10.1101/2020.03.25.007146 for more information.
Using bioconductor:
if (!require(“BiocManager”, quietly = TRUE)) install.packages(“BiocManager”)
BiocManager::install(“single”)
To use SINGLe you must have the following data:
Align nanopore reads to the reference sequence and create a sorted bam file.
For the reads of the reference:
minimap2 -ax map-ont --sam-hit-only REF.fasta REF_READS.fastq > REF_READS.sam
samtools view -S -b REF_READS.sam > REF_READS.bam
samtools sort REF_READS.bam -o REF_READS.sorted.bamAnd for the reads of the library:
minimap2 -ax map-ont --sam-hit-only REF.fasta LIB_READS.fastq >LIB_READS.sam
samtools view -S -b LIB_READS.sam > LIB_READS.bam
samtools sort LIB_READS.bam -o LIB_READS.sorted.bamsSINGLe consists on three steps: train model, evaluate model, compute consensus. As it can be time consuming, I will only analyze a subset of positions
