NGSView

NGSView provides visualization and editing of next-generation sequence alignments to enable analysis and manipulation of large-scale sequencing datasets.


Key Features:

  • Visualization and manipulation: Supports visualization and editing of next-generation sequence alignments and individual reads.
  • Scalability: Capable of handling millions of sequences simultaneously for large-scale datasets.
  • Extensibility: Designed to be extensible to accommodate additional analysis functions and workflows.

Scientific Applications:

  • Genomic research: Facilitates inspection and analysis of genome-scale sequencing alignments.
  • Variant calling: Enables manual review and adjustment of alignments relevant to variant detection.
  • Comparative genomics: Supports comparison of aligned sequences across samples or references.
  • Transcriptome analysis: Assists examination of aligned RNA-seq reads for transcript-level investigations.

Methodology:

Performs simultaneous visualization and manipulation of extensive next-generation sequencing alignments to manage and inspect large sequencing datasets.
