Description: Sequence Mapping and Alignment Tool (examples)
SMALT efficiently aligns DNA sequencing reads with a reference genome.
Reads from a wide range of sequencing platforms, for example Illumina,
Roche-454, Ion Torrent, PacBio or ABI-Sanger, can be processed including
paired reads.
.
The software employs a perfect hash index of short words (< 20
nucleotides long), sampled at equidistant steps along the genomic
reference sequences.
.
For each read, potentially matching segments in the reference are
identified from seed matches in the index and subsequently aligned with
the read using a banded Smith-Waterman algorithm.
.
The best gapped alignments of each read is reported including a score
for the reliability of the best mapping. The user can adjust the
trade-off between sensitivity and speed by tuning the length and spacing
of the hashed words.
.
A mode for the detection of split (chimeric) reads is provided.
Multi-threaded program execution is supported.
.
This package contains example data and a test suite to test the data.
