Illumina sequencer run setup services (NGS-pipeline)  and UTAP 

The bioinformatics unit provides services for processing NGS data from a wide variety of applications, divided into main processes as follows:

  1. NGS run setup and services (NGS-pipeline) that assist with retrieving raw fastq or demultiplexed files, and provide quality control measures for each sample that was sequenced. The services include:

    1. Base-calling of the sequences: creating fastq files

    2. Samples demultiplex 

    3. Quality control of the fastq files

      2. Web server: User-friendly Transcriptome Analysis Pipeline (UTAP) -  Click to go to our UTAP site

       a. Analysis setup after sequencing completes

       b. Analysis pipeline steps and reports 

      3. Command line: User-friendly Transcriptome Analysis Pipeline (UTAP)  - work in progress - currently not available
