SCCNV: A Software Tool for Identifying Copy Number Variation From Single-Cell Whole-Genome Sequencing.

Identification of de novo copy number variations (CNVs) across the genome in single cells requires single-cell whole-genome amplification (WGA) and sequencing. Although many experimental protocols of amplification methods have been developed, all suffer from uneven distribution of read depth across the genome after sequencing of DNA amplicons, which constrains the usage of conventional CNV calling methodologies. Here, we present SCCNV, a software tool for detecting CNVs from whole genome-amplified single cells. SCCNV is a read-depth based approach with adjustment for the WGA bias. We demonstrate its performance by analyzing data obtained with most of the single-cell amplification methods that have been employed for CNV analysis, including DOP-PCR, MDA, MALBAC, and LIANTI. SCCNV is freely available at https://github.com/biosinodx/SCCNV.

This is a list of tools and resources that we have found mentioned in this publication.


GATK (tool)

RRID:SCR_001876

A software package to analyze next-generation resequencing data. The toolkit offers a wide variety of tools, with a primary focus on variant discovery and genotyping as well as strong emphasis on data quality assurance. Its robust architecture, powerful processing engine and high-performance computing features make it capable of taking on projects of any size. This software library makes writing efficient analysis tools using next-generation sequencing data very easy, and second it's a suite of tools for working with human medical resequencing projects such as 1000 Genomes and The Cancer Genome Atlas. These tools include things like a depth of coverage analyzers, a quality score recalibrator, a SNP/indel caller and a local realigner. (entry from Genetic Analysis Software)

SAMTOOLS (tool)

RRID:SCR_002105

Original SAMTOOLS package has been split into three separate repositories including Samtools, BCFtools and HTSlib. Samtools for manipulating next generation sequencing data used for reading, writing, editing, indexing,viewing nucleotide alignments in SAM,BAM,CRAM format. BCFtools used for reading, writing BCF2,VCF, gVCF files and calling, filtering, summarising SNP and short indel sequence variants. HTSlib used for reading, writing high throughput sequencing data.

QIAGEN (tool)

RRID:SCR_008539

A commercial organization which provides assay technologies to isolate DNA, RNA, and proteins from any biological sample. Assay technologies are then used to make specific target biomolecules, such as the DNA of a specific virus, visible for subsequent analysis.

Trim Galore (tool)

RRID:SCR_011847

Software tool to automate quality and adapter trimming as well as quality control, with some added functionality to remove biased methylation positions for RRBS sequence files for directional, non-directional or paired-end sequencing. Wrapper around Cutadapt and FastQC to consistently apply adapter and quality trimming to FastQ files, with extra functionality for Reduced Representation Bisulfite Sequencing data.

FastQC (tool)

RRID:SCR_014583

Quality control software that perform checks on raw sequence data coming from high throughput sequencing pipelines. This software also provides a modular set of analyses which can give a quick impression of the quality of the data prior to further analysis.
