Where can I get Oxford Nanopore MinION(tm) data from?

01 Oct 2014

We have released Oxford Nanopore MinION(tm) data for E. coli K-12 MG1655 with two chemistries (R7 and R7.3).

Preprint describing them, see Fig 2 for a guide to read types and associated error rates: http://biorxiv.org/content/early/2014/09/26/009613

Direct downloads via GigaDB: http://gigadb.org/dataset/100102

Or via ENA: http://www.ebi.ac.uk/ena/data/view/PRJEB7385

R7.3 2D: http://pathogenomics.bham.ac.uk/filedist/nanopore/Ecoli_R73_2D.fasta

R7.3 workflow 1.9 passing 2D: http://pathogenomics.bham.ac.uk/filedist/nanopore/FC20.wf1.9.2D.pass.fasta

And in order to extract data from the FAST5 files you will want poretools: https://github.com/arq5x/poretools http://bioinformatics.oxfordjournals.org/content/early/2014/09/15/bioinformatics.btu555 http://poretools.readthedocs.org/en/latest/
