The QIAGEN CLC Genomics Workbench now enables analysis of uncorrected long reads from Oxford Nanopore and PacBio using a newly developed plugin that provides seamless integration with other QIAGEN CLC products. The Long Read Support plugin builds on established state-of-the-art pipelines for read mapping, read error correction, de novo assembly and contig polishing that are made available through the user-friendly workbench graphical user interface (GUI). No command-line or code compilation is needed. Benefits of the Long Read Support plugin include:
- Combination of best practices for polishing and assembly of long reads
- Easy to use GUI interface for non-experts
- Execute on a laptop
- 100% cloud-ready
- Prebuilt or user-designed custom workflows
- Inbuilt data security and data compression
- Full support for enterprise integration
