Nanopype: A modular and scalable nanopore data processing pipeline
2019
SUMMARY: Long-read third-generation nanopore sequencing enables researchers to now address a range of questions that are difficult to tackle with short read approaches. The rapidly expanding user base and continuously increasing throughput have sparked the development of a growing number of specialized analysis tools. However, streamlined processing of nanopore datasets using reproducible and transparent workflows is still lacking. Here we present Nanopype, a nanopore data processing pipeline that integrates a diverse set of established bioinformatics software while maintaining consistent and standardized output formats. Seamless integration into compute cluster environments makes the framework suitable for high-throughput applications. As a result, Nanopype facilitates comparability of nanopore data analysis workflows and thereby should enhance the reproducibility of biological insights.
