Tool:GeneFuse: gene fusion detection and visualization with interactive HTML report

Question

[chen]

GeneFuse is a tool to detect and visualize gene fusions. It is written in C++ and only depends on libz library.

It can generate interactive HTML report with following information:

• the fusion genes, along with their transcripts.
• the inferred break point with reference genome coordinations.
• the inferred fusion protein, with all exons and the transcription direction.
• the supporting reads, with all bases colorized according to their quality scores.
• the number of supporting reads, and how many of them are unique (the rest may be duplications)

Informative and interactive HTML report

• Sample report: http://opengene.org/FusionScan/report.html

Github project

This tool is renamed to GeneFuse since FusionScan is taken by another older project.

Hi Chen,

Unfortunately you choose a name for your tool that has been already taken. GENEFUSE is my entity I have used it for some time. If you wish to continue to use that name you would have to include me (Anthony Vattay) as a "collaborator".

By the way where are you located. I am in Cambridge MA.

We could discuss future experiments.
