several years, as well as making many code contributions and improving |
|
the engineering of pysam. |

The sources in the directory samtools are from the samtools project: |

|
Heng Li from the Sanger Institute wrote most of the initial source code |
|
of SAMtools and various converters. |
|
|
|
Bob Handsaker from the Broad Institute is a major contributor to the |
|
SAM/BAM specification. He designed and implemented the BGZF format, the |
|
underlying indexable compression format for the BAM format. BGZF does |
|
not support arithmetic between file offsets. |
|
|
|
Jue Ruan for the Beijing Genome Institute designed and implemented the |
|
RAZF format, an alternative indexable compression format. RAZF supports |
|
arithmetic between file offsets, at the cost of increased index file |
|
size and the full compatibility with gzip. RAZF is optional and only |
|
used in `faidx' for indexing RAZF compressed fasta files. |

|
Colin Hercus updated novo2sam.pl to support gapped alignment by |
|
novoalign. |
