Description

This Github repository contains a bioinformatics pipeline for identification and characterization of mutations in Saccharomyces cerevisiae. MutantHuntWGS compares data, input in FASTQ format, from a mutant strain to a wild-type strain to identify high confidence sequence variants present only in the mutant.

To enable quick and easy installation and to ensure reproducibility, MutantHuntWGS was incorporated into a Docker container. With a single command, users can download and install the software. A second command runs the analysis. The pipeline allows researchers to leverage WGS for the efficient identification of causal mutations, regardless of bioinformatics experience.
