Methylation-free E.coli nanopore sequencing (ONT R9.4) data set

The data set consists of a zip file of all fast5 files (fast5.zip), a reference genome (Ecoli_K12_MG1655.fasta), a Illumina assemly genome (illumina_contigs.fasta) and a fastq file from Guppy 5 (P22955_101.fastq.gz). We sequenced the Ecoli non-methylated genomic DNA (D5016, Zymo Research) with an ONT MinION device. The sequencing libraries were prepared by fragmenting the genomic DNA using Covaris g-TUBE and a Ligation sequencing kit (SQK-LSK109, Oxford Nanopore) with Flow Cell chemistry R9.4.1. We also performed short-read Illumina sequencing on the same sample using the TruSeq PCR-free library preparation on the MiSeq sequencing platform (Illumina, USA), and constructed a draft assembly from the Illumina sequencing results using SPAdes v3.6.0. We also upload a reference genome directly obtained from the E.coli sample producer website. In addition, the data set contains two fastq files that produced by the Lokatt basecaller and local-trained Bonito basecaller, respectively, which are used for benchmarking in the Lokatt basecaller paper.This work has been supported by the Swedish Research Council Research Environment Grant QuantumSense [VR 2018-06169]; and the Swedish Foundation for Strategic Research (SSF) grant ASSEMBLE [RIT15-0012]
