SRPRISM (Single Read Paired Read Indel Substitution Minimizer): an efficient aligner for assemblies with explicit guarantees

摘要

Alignment of sequence reads generated by next-generation sequencing is an integral part of most pipelines analyzing next-generation sequencing data. A number of tools designed to quickly align a large volume of sequences are already available. However, most existing tools lack explicit guarantees about their output. They also do not support searching genome assemblies, such as the human genome assembly GRCh38, that include primary and alternate sequences and placement information for alternate sequences to primary sequences in the assembly.
