Bacterial Bioinformatics
This course provides demonstrations and exercises for performing common genomics-based analysis tasks of bacterial sequence data. It uses BV-BRC, the Bacterial and Viral Bioinformatics Resource Center (merger of PATRIC, IRD and ViPR, the three former resources), as the platform for analysis. BV-BRC is the NIH/NIAID-funded bacterial Bioinformatics Resource Center, providing comprehensive bacterial genomic data with integrated analysis tools and visualizations. BV-BRC also provides a private workspace where users can upload and analyze their own data.
Course participants will gain skills needed to do comparative analysis of bacterial genomes, starting with raw sequence data.The lessons in the first module cover genome assembly, annotation, phylogenetic tree construction, and protein family / proteome comparisons. Each lesson builds on the previous, creating a complete baseline analysis workflow.
NOTE: The exercises in this course were developed using the PATRIC, the predecessor system to BV-BRC. However, BV-BRC was built from PATRIC, so most of the content is still the same.
