Genome Assembly & Annotation Services

  • All current sequencing technologies support - Illumina, PacBio, Oxford Nanopore, 10x, Hi-C, Ion Torrent, and others.

  • Igenbio scientists utilize a multitude of assembly strategies - denovo, reference based, hybrid, metagenomic, and others.

  • Gene Annotation and Functional Assignments placing genes into their functional or metabolic context utilizing KEGG Pathways, Gene Ontology, and the ERGO database.

  • Identification of Antibiotic Resistance - including the genes, pathways, and specific drugs

  • Improve gene prediction utilizing Isoform Sequencing (Iso-Seq) and RNA-Sequencing (RNA-Seq)

 

Common Applications

  • Viral, Prokaryotic (Bacterial/Archaea), Fungal, Plant, Animal, or high eukaryote genome annotation & assembly

  • Haploid, diploid or polyploid assemblies

  • Unculturable organism from Metagenome

  • Genomic Variation & Biomarker Analysis, including Single Nucleotide Variants (SNV), Insertions and Deletions (InDels), structural variations, and others

  • Clinical or Pre-clinical

  • Antibiotic Resistance


The basis of our annotation pipeline starts with combining high quality next generation sequencing (NGS) data and state of the art genome assembly to produce large, high quality contigs and scaffolds. ERGO identifies more genes more accurately because it doesn’t rely on sequence similarity alone - the entire genome structure is considered. In addition to using state of the art algorithms, our expert scientists manually curate genome annotations. All of this is done with one goal - the highest quality functional annotation and metabolic reconstruction.
