GNUMAP Resource Report Resource Website 1+ mentions |
GNUMAP (RRID:SCR_005482) | GNUMAP | software resource | THIS RESOURCE IS NO LONGER IN SERVICE. Documented on May 3rd,2023. A software program designed to accurately map sequence data obtained from next-generation sequencing machines (specifically that of Solexa/Illumina) back to a genome of any size. By using the posterior probability of mapping a given read to a specific genomic loation, we are able to account for repetitive reads by distributing them across several regions in the genome. In addition, the output of the program is created in such a way that it can be easily viewed through other free and readily- available programs. Several benchmark data sets were created with spiked-in duplicate regions, and GNUMAP was able to more accurately account for these duplicate regions. | next-generation sequencing, genome, bio.tools |
