-------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Fedora Update Notification FEDORA-2010-17844 2010-11-17 22:31:12 --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Name : bfast Product : Fedora 14 Version : 0.6.4e Release : 1.fc14 URL : http://bfast.sourceforge.net Summary : Blat-like Fast Accurate Search Tool Description : BFAST facilitates the fast and accurate mapping of short reads to reference sequences. Some advantages of BFAST include: Speed: enables billions of short reads to be mapped quickly. Accuracy: A priori probabilities for mapping reads with defined set of variants. An easy way to measurably tune accuracy at the expense of speed. Specifically, BFAST was designed to facilitate whole-genome resequencing, where mapping billions of short reads with variants is of utmost importance. BFAST supports both Illumina and ABI SOLiD data, as well as any other Next-Generation Sequencing Technology (454, Helicos), with particular emphasis on sensitivity towards errors, SNPs and especially indels. Other algorithms take short-cuts by ignoring errors, certain types of variants (indels), and even require further alignment, all to be the "fastest" (but still not complete). BFAST is able to be tuned to find variants regardless of the error-rate, polymorphism rate, or other factors. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Update Information: Upstream bugfix release -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ChangeLog: * Thu Oct 14 2010 Adam Huffman <[email protected]> - 0.6.4e-1 - new upstream bugfix release - solid2fastq.pl removed upstream -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- This update can be installed with the "yum" update program.
