A DNA sequences analyzer for you to use, an ultrafast memory-efficient short read aligner. Bowtie is an ultrafast, memory-efficient short read aligner geared toward quickly aligning large sets of short DNA sequences (reads) to large genomes. It aligns 35-base-pair reads to the human genome at a rate of 25 million reads per hour on a typical workstation.

Bowtie indexes the genome with a Burrows-Wheeler index to keep its memory footprint small: for the human genome, the index is typically about 2.2 GB (for unpaired alignment) or 2.9 GB (for paired-end or colorspace alignment). Multiple processors can be used simultaneously to achieve outstandinger alignment speed.

Bowtie can also output alignments in the standard SAM format, allowing Bowtie to interoperate with other tools supporting SAM, including the SAMtools consensus, SNP, and indel callers. Bowtie runs on the command line under Windows, Mac OS X, Linux, and Solaris.

Bowtie also forms the basis for other tools, including TopHat: a fast splice junction mapper for RNA-seq reads, Cufflinks: a software for transcriptome assembly and isoform quantitiation from RNA-seq reads, and Crossbow: a cloud-computing program tool for large-scale reseuqncing data.
