De novo sequencing and variant calling with nanopores using PoreSeq

The single-molecule accuracy of nanopore sequencing has been an area of rapid academic and commercial advancement, but remains challenging for the de novo analysis of genomes. We introduce here a novel algorithm for the error correction of nanopore data, utilizing statistical models of the physical...

Article The single-molecule accuracy of nanopore sequencing has been an area of rapid academic and commercial advancement, but remains challenging for the de novo analysis of genomes. We introduce here a novel algorithm for the error correction of nanopore data, utilizing statistical models of the physical system in order to obtain high accuracy de novo sequences at a range of coverage depths. We demonstrate the technique by sequencing M13 bacteriophage DNA to 99% accuracy at moderate coverage as well as its use in an assembly pipeline by sequencing E. coli and λ DNA at a range of coverages. We also show the algorithm’s ability to accurately classify sequence variants at far lower coverage than existing methods. 2015-09-09 2015-10 /pmc/articles/PMC4877053/ /pubmed/26352647 http://dx.doi.org/10.1038/nbt.3360 Text en http://www.nature.com/authors/editorial_policies/license.html#terms Users may view, print, copy, and download text and data-mine the content in such documents, for the purposes of academic research, subject always to the full Conditions of use:http://www.nature.com/authors/editorial_policies/license.html#terms
