Cogent NGS Analysis Pipeline
Version 2.0.1
Compatible with our popular bulk and plate-based RNA-seq kits!
Overview
Cogent NGS Analysis Pipeline (also referred to as CogentAP) is bioinformatic software for analyzing RNA-seq data, including gene or transcript expression counting, gene fusion detection, and immune profiling analysis. Please refer to the table at the bioinformatics resource portal for the full list of validated Takara Bio reagent kits supported for use with the pipeline. CogentAP inputs raw sequencing data and outputs an HTML report and other files, such as a gene matrix, to continue further analysis. Output also includes R data objects, which may be used as input for Cogent NGS Discovery Software.
Example output available in the CogentAP HTML report.
After installing, the software consists of the following features:
- CogentAP GUI launcher
- Command-line interface program
- Mini-dataset files (WellList.txt and FASTQ files)—used to test the CogentAP functionality
- Sample output reports and stats—used to compare to the analysis results of the mini-dataset test
Supported operating systems
CogentAP can be installed on the following versions of Linux:
- CentOS 6.9 & 6.10
- RedHat 7.5
- Ubuntu 17
Hardware requirements
For analyzing Illumina NextSeq® High-Output data:
- 24-core CPU
- 64 GB+ RAM
- 500 GB+ available hard drive space
Analyzing MiniSeq™ or MiSeq® data may be possible on servers with less computational power than the specifications above. Analysis of HiSeq® or NovaSeq™ data would require better hardware than is listed.
Additional third-party software dependencies*
- Conda (or Miniconda3)
- bcl2fastq conversion software
*Not included with the software; must be downloaded and installed separately.
Supported applications
