Package components
The Staden package consists of several different programs. The main components are:
- pregap4 – base calling with Phred, end clipping, and vector trimming
- trev – trace viewing and editing
- gap4 – sequence assembly, contig editing, and finishing
- gap5 – assembly visualising, editing, and finishing of NGS data[1]
- Spin – DNA and protein sequence analysis
History
The Staden Package was developed by Rodger Staden's group at the Medical Research Council (MRC) Laboratory of Molecular Biology, Cambridge, England, since 1977.[2][3][4] The package was available free to academic users, with 2,500 licenses issued in 2003 and an estimated 10,000 users, when funding for further development ended.[5] The package was converted to open-source in 2004, and several new versions have been released since.
During the years of active development, the Staden group published a number of widely used file formats and ideas, including the SCF file format,[6] the use of sequence quality scores to generate accurate consensus sequences,[7] and the ZTR file format.[8]
