Assembly

Locations: 

 /fs/szasmg2/Culex_pipiens_symbiont/

2006_1226_WGA : initial assembly

Steps: 

 1. All cpqg reads have been downloaded from the TA (July 2006). The
 reads have been grouped by libraries and the clear range has been
 computed. There were 6.6M reads in the download compared with 7.3M now.
 Unfortunately I've only noticed this difference at the end of my experiment.

 2. The Wolbachia endosymbiont of Culex quinquefasciatus assembly has
 been downloaded from the Sanger ftp site
 ( ftp://ftp.sanger.ac.uk/pub/pathogens/Wolbachia/Wb_Cq.dbs ) ; there are
 95 sequences in this file. Most of them are very short. Below are listed
 the name,length & gc% of the longest 10: 
    name                        length(bp)   gc%
    culex173d08.p1k               1457497    34.17
    culexbac1d10Bg07.p1k            24726    35.11
    culex3d09.p1k                   15587    21.81
    culex166f03.q1k                 13962    36.17
    culex_1177_1189-1a02.w2k1177    13564    37.10
    culex26b07.p1k                   9245    35.53
    culex174d04.p1k                  8832    33.64
    J28015Ag08.q1ka                  7809    36.04
    culex180e07.p1k                  6960    36.59
    culex53a02.p1k                   5343    33.58

 3. The cpqg random reads (clr only) have been aligned to symbiont
 sequences using nucmer (default parameters)

 4.  The nucmer output has been analyzed. It's been noticed that many of
 the short symbiont sequences (2-3KB in length) have a higher than
 expected number of alignments. To avoid the repeats I've selected only
 the reads that aligned to the longest 10 symbiont sequences (see above).

 5. A 95% identity and minimum of 400 bp alignment thold has been used to
 determine the symbiont reads. There were 29,110 unique reads (30,690
 reads+mates) selected. Below is a per library breakdown (reads+mates):

 6. The reads have been assembled using the runCA-OBT.pl script (default
 parameters).  
 Most of the reads got assembled into 3 large scaffolds. There is mate
 pair evidence (outie mates) that the largest scaffold is circular. 

 All the scaffolds ens up in surrogates (20-50KB total surrogate length)
 Are there not enough BE to span the unique regions?  

 Cpqg.qc

 scaff_8 Longest scaff
 scaff_9 2nd longest scaff
 scaff_7 3rd longest scaff
 scaff_6 Small scaff that Looks circular

 7. The scaffolds/contigs have been aligned to longest 10 Wolbachia
 endosymbiont sequences. Most of the long alignments were at over 99%
 identity. However, several large rearrangements have been noticed.

 Wb_Cq-vs-scaff Reference vs scaff


2007_0802_WGA-default : new assembly

Steps: 

 1. All Culex reads have been downloaded from TA . ~1M new reads sincd 2006_1226

 2. The reads have been aligned to the new reference (exclude mito,repeats) using nucmer (default parameters)

 3. A 95% identity and minimum of 400 bp alignment thold has been used to
 determine the symbiont reads.  3850 new reads & mates in addition to the previous
 ones were identified

 4. 33,783 reads have been assembled using the runCA-OBT.pl script (default
 parameters).  
 Cpqg.qc

 Compared to the initial assembly, many metrics went down (TotalBasesInScaffolds,MaxBasesInScaffolds,MaxContigLength ...)
 TotalSurrogates & SurrogateInstances more than doubled


2007_0802_WGA-0.5E  : error rate =0.5 % => more fragmented assembly

2007_0802_WGA-0.5M  : genome size=1.5M => more TotalBasesInScaffolds but more unhappy mates

What to do next?

  • use CA 5.1 (latest version)
  • remove 958 cDNA's aligned to culex*
  • increase utg error rate to from 1.5% to 2% (3% gave worse results than 2%)
  • recruite reads that align to contig ends: some ends are repetitive => too many; others no alignments
