Abstract

The CloVR-Microbe pipeline performs the basic processing and analysis steps required for standard microbial single-genome sequencing projects: A) Whole-genome shotgun sequence assembly; B) Identification of protein and RNA-coding genes; and C) Functional gene annotation. B) and C) are based on the IGS Annotation Engine (http://ae.igs.umaryland.edu/), which is described elsewhere (K Galens et al. submitted). The assembly component of CloVR- Microbe can be executed independently from the gene identification and annotation components. Alternatively, pre-assembled sequence contigs can be used to perform gene identifications and annotations. The pipeline input may consist of unassembled raw sequence reads from the Sanger, Roche/454 GS FLX or Illumina GAII or HiSeq sequencing platforms or of combinations of Sanger and Roche/454 sequence data. The pipeline output consists of results and summary files generated during the different pipeline steps. Annotated sequence files are generated that are compatible with common genome browser tools and can be submitted to the GenBank repository at NCBI. This protocol is available in CloVR beta versions 0.5 and 0.6.
