  3. image
  4. Select the type of input data (ONT, PacBio, Illumina, etc) and provide these files as input. Some input data types, like ONT, support basecalling, and you will be asked to choose the algorithm to run basecalling with.
  5. image
  6. If applicable, choose how basecalling is performed and tune additional parameters based on your chosen algorithm.
  7. image
  8. If applicable, choose the type of polishing algorithm to run and tune additional parameters based on your chosen algorithm.
  9. image
  10. Choose an assembly algorithm. The algorithm options and input parameters may differ based on your input sequencing data type.
  11. image
  12. Most runs will require you to choose an evaluation algorithm. Certain evaluation algorithms may require additional parameters, such as lineage or reference assembly.
  13. image
  14. Give your workflow run a unique name and review all the inputs and parameters. When ready to submit workflow, click “Run Workflow”

Genome Coordinate Conversion

Convert the location of a set of genomic features, such as genes, transcription factor bindings sites, or promoters, from one genome to another

Workflow Walkthrough

  1. Navigate to the Genome Coordinate Conversion workflow on the Form Bio platform. This workflow can also be found using the search bar at the top right or by selecting either the “Genomics” or “Sequence Alignment” filter.
  2. On the launcher page, you can view use-cases, a brief summary of the analysis, and information on inputs and outputs of the workflow. When ready to begin, click Run Workflow in the top right corner.
  3. image
  4. On the inputs tab, select the type of analysis you wish to perform - either creation of a Genome Coordinate Conversion File, or the conversion of genomic regions using a preexisting file. Then, upload the query and target genomes as FastA files.
  5. image
  6. Review the workflow parameters and file inputs. Give your workflow run a unique name. When ready to submit the job, click Run Workflow at the bottom right corner.
  7. image

Results Walkthrough

  1. To view the results of your Genome Coordinate Conversion workflow, first find and select your workflow run from the Activity tab.
  2. Navigate to the Files tab. Under output, all workflow files will be listed. You may also view these files in the File Explorer on the left-hand side.

FLAG: Eukaryote Genome Annotation

Annotate eukaryote genomes from an input FastA file

Workflow Walkthrough

  1. Navigate to the FLAG: Eukaryote Gene Annotation workflow on the Form Bio platform. You can find the workflow using the search bar on the top right or by using the Genomics filter on the left-hand side.
  2. Take a moment to view information on inputs, outputs, and a workflow summary. Select version 2.0.0 from the dropdown launcher. When ready to begin, click Run Workflow
  3. image
  4. Start by providing the scientific name of the species to annotate, formatted with a space between the species and genus - drosophila_melanogaster, for example. Then, upload FastA files corresponding to the genome, proteins, and RNA. Choose whether to softmask the input files.
  5. image
  6. For finding homologous proteins, select whether to search for transcripts or proteins - generally just searching for transcripts is recommended. Then, select the database to search, such as RefSeq.
  7. image
  8. Tune some parameters related to the size of the genome, and which gene prediction algorithms to use. You may also additionally provide a related organism genome assembly and annotation file.
  9. image
