Description

Gensearch(r)NGS is a user friendly framework for the analysis of targeted resequencing data from Illumina (FastQ) and Roche 454 (FastA/Qual) data files to lists of variants which can be filtered and prioritized on user defined criteria. It is plugin friendly: users can add external aligners such as Bowtie, BWA or Stampy, depending on the platform they use and their alignment requirements (the framework offers also a built in custom aligner).

Users can also built a patient centric database with the variants/mutations detected and submit variants to the public Cafe Variome platform which is an open project to help laboratories to exchange variant information.
