+# locigenesis
+
+locigenesis is a tool that generates a human T-cell receptor (TCR), runs
+it through a sequence reader simulation tool and extracts CDR3.
+
+The goal of this project is to generate both HVR sequences with and
+without sequencing errors, in order to create datasets for a Machine
+Learning algorithm.
+
+## Technologies
+
+-   [immuneSIM](https://github.com/GreiffLab/immuneSIM/): in silico
+    generation of human and mouse BCR and TCR repertoires
+-   [CuReSim](http://www.pegase-biosciences.com/curesim-a-customized-read-simulator/):
+    read simulator that mimics Ion Torrent sequencing
+
+## Installation
+
+This project uses [Nix](https://nixos.org/) to ensure reproducible
+builds.
+
+1.  Install Nix (compatible with MacOS, Linux and
+    [WSL](https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/wsl/about)):
+
+```bash
+curl -L https://nixos.org/nix/install | sh
+```
+
+2.  Clone the repository:
+
+```bash
+git clone https://git.coolneng.duckdns.org/coolneng/locigenesis
+```
+
+3.  Change the working directory to the project:
+
+```bash
+cd locigenesis
+```
+
+4.  Enter the nix-shell:
+
+```bash
+nix-shell
+```
+
+After running these commands, you will find yourself in a shell that
+contains all the needed dependencies.
+
+## Usage
+
+An execution script that accepts 2 parameters is provided, the following
+command invokes it:
+
+```bash
+./generation.sh <number of sequences> <number of reads>
+```
+
+-   \<number of sequences\>: an integer that specifies the number of
+    different sequences to generate
+-   \<number of reads\>: an integer that specifies the number of reads
+    to perform on each sequence
+
+The script will generate 2 files under the data directory:
+
+  |HVR.fastq  |Contains the original CDR3 sequence |
+  |CuReSim-HVR.fastq |   Contains CDR3 after the read simulation, with sequencing errors |
