The de Bruijn graph data structure is widely used in next-generation sequencing (NGS). Many programs, e.g.
de novo
assemblers, rely on in-memory representation of this graph. However, current techniques for representing the de Bruijn graph of a human genome require a large amount of memory (≥ 30 GB).
We propose a new encoding of the de Bruijn graph, which occupies an order of magnitude less space than current representations. The encoding is based on a Bloom filter, with an additional structure to remove critical false positives. An assembly software implementing this structure, Minia, performed a complete
de novo
assembly of human genome short reads using 5.7 GB of memory in 23 hours.
