Savant Genome Browser Marc Fiume Department of Computer Science University of Toronto
High Throughput Sequencing • HTS machines can read billions of nucleotide bases per run • interpretation and analysis challenge • many separate tools for computational and visualization Savant Genome Browser - http://compbio.cs.toronto.edu/savant/
Tools for Genomic Data Analysis • substantial disconnect between the processes of computational analysis and visualization Savant Genome Browser - http://compbio.cs.toronto.edu/savant/
Tools for Genomic Data Analysis • substantial disconnect between the processes of computational analysis and visualization Savant Genome Browser - http://compbio.cs.toronto.edu/savant/
Savant Genome Browser • platform for integratedvisual analysis of genomic data • feature-rich genome browser • computationally extensible via plugin framework Savant Genome Browser - http://compbio.cs.toronto.edu/savant/
FEATURE demonstration • INTERFACE • HTS READ ALIGNMENTS • EXAMPLE PLUGIN: SNP FINDER Savant Genome Browser - http://compbio.cs.toronto.edu/savant/
Plugin Framework • provides ability to extend Savant beyond its core functionalities • for programmers: platform for simple development and deployment of various programs • for users: allows one mix and match modules to perform customized visual analysis Savant Genome Browser - http://compbio.cs.toronto.edu/savant/
Plugin API • rich collection of functions to get data, perform computations, and create custom visualizations Savant Genome Browser - http://compbio.cs.toronto.edu/savant/
On-the-fly SNP Finder user input : range change listen for range change get track data in range DETECT SNPs add bookmark draw custom graphics Savant Genome Browser - http://compbio.cs.toronto.edu/savant/
Savant Plugins • SNP Finder • Bookmark Intersection • Continuous Track Statistics • Bookmark Player • Table View • we encourage plugin submissions, which can be done through the Savant website Savant Genome Browser - http://compbio.cs.toronto.edu/savant/
Conclusions & future work Savant Genome Browser - http://compbio.cs.toronto.edu/savant/
Conclusions • Savant is a platform for integrated visualization and analysis of genomic data • stand-alone genome browser • standard features: e.g. file formats, navigation • novel features: e.g. table view, matepair mode, etc. • computationally extensible through plugin framework • makes interpretation and analysis of genomic data easier and more efficient Savant Genome Browser - http://compbio.cs.toronto.edu/savant/
Future work • external datasources • e.g. SQL database, 1000 Genomes Project Online DB • improve and increase data format support • grow user and developer community Savant Genome Browser - http://compbio.cs.toronto.edu/savant/
