While several well-established quality control (QC) tools are available for short reads sequencing data, there is a general paucity of computational tools that provide long read metrics in a fast and comprehensive manner across all major sequencing platforms (such as PacBio, Oxford Nanopore, Illumina Complete Long Read) and data formats (such as ONT POD5, FAST5, basecall summary files and PacBio unaligned BAM). Additionally, none of the current tools provide support for summarizing Oxford Nanopore basecall signal or comprehensive base modification (methylation) information from genomic data. Furthermore, nowadays a single PromethION flowcell on the Oxford Nanopore platform can generate terabytes of signal data, which cannot be handled by existing tools designed for small-scale flowcells. To address these challenges, here we present LongReadSum, a multi-threaded C++ tool which provides fast and comprehensive QC reports on all major aspects of sequencing data (such as read, base, base quality, alignment, and base modification metrics) and produce basecalling signal intensity information from the Oxford Nanopore platform. We demonstrate use cases to analyze cDNA sequencing, direct mRNA sequencing, reduced representation methylation sequencing (RRMS) through adaptive sequencing, as well as whole genome sequencing (WGS) data using diverse long-read platforms.
