4. XOMICS™
Xomics™ Integrated Bioinformatics Solution
With the advent of 2nd generation sequencing a large amount of sequence data is now available for a
large number of species. Although the cost for sequencing has come down dramatically, at a rate ex-
ceeding Moore’s Law, the cost of data analysis has continued to rise, where today the cost of data analy-
sis accounts for over 50% of the total sequencing cost:
Source: Sboner et al., Genome Biology 2011 12:125 doi: 10.1186/gb-2011-12-8-125
It is has been estimated that by 2020, the cost to sequence a human genome will be less than $1000, but
the cost for data analysis will be over $6500! For targeted sequencing, the sequencing cost is even less,
but the analysis is 3X to 5X the cost of sequencing. Many commercial facilities offer an exome se-
quence for ~$500. Still, the problem is data analysis with costs ranging up to $2500. That is, until now!
Azco, in partnership with Theragen Bio, has launched Xomics™ a personal bioinformatics solution de-
signed, and priced, to greatly bring down the cost of downstream sequence data analysis in a scalable,
customizable, easy-to-use, integrated solution.
Xomics™ is a system you control, it is not a “cloud-based” solution. Rather, Xomics™ is a hosted solu-
tion where the server and integrated bioinformatics software is in your office. So, your data is com-
pletely under your control!

5. XOMICS™
Integrated Solution
Xomics™ includes optimized hardware along with fully customizable bioinformatics software to form an
integrated solution for personal bioinformatics that is installed in your laboratory or office, not a solution
in the “cloud”.
The hardware consists of a personal “server” offered in three standard configurations, each configuration
sized to meet your current analysis re-
quirements. Additionally, each con-
figuration can be further customized to
meet your exact needs.
The software is a complete, turn-key,
solution that performs sequence align-
ment and mapping, quality statistics,
SNP calling (i.e. Single Nucleotide
Polymophisms, insertions, deletions,
translocation, copy number variation,
etc.), genotype/phenotype associations,
reports the medical relevance of SNP
calls, pharmacogenetic information, even phylogeny information. Everything you need to transform your
sequence data into useful, reportable information for research, pharmacogenomic, or personal genomic
applications.
Xomics™ Hardware
Xomics™ server hardware is offered in three standard configurations that can be further customized to
meet your individual requirements. Additionally, Azco offers on-site installation and integration service
to network the Xomics™ server with your existing computers. The three standard configurations are:
Light - Contains processing power designed for light to moderate sized applications including; exome
sequence analysis, or other targeted sequencing applications.
Standard - The Standard version contains the processing power required for most moderate to large
scale sequence analysis applications by combining CPU with GPU processors. The applications in-
clude; whole genome sequence analysis, exome sequence analysis, RNA-Seq plus others.
Pro - The Pro version offers the same processing power as the standard, but includes additional stor-
age to provide you the disk space required to store the data generated by large sequencing applications
from hundreds of analyses.
Each configuration can be further customized to meet your specific requirements. With Xomics ™, you
can start light and upgrade as your needs require.

6. XOMICS™
Below is a table that highlights the features of each of the standard configurations.
Intel Xenon nVidia GPU Hard Disk
Model RAM (GB) RAID (TB)
CPUs (cores) (cores) (TB)
Light 2 (8) ———— 48 6 ————
Standard 3 (12) 4(1792) 96 24 ————
Pro 3 (12) 4 (1792) 96 24 100
Why GPUs? CPUs (central processing units) consist of a few cores optimized for serial processing, while
GPUs (graphical processing units) consist of thousands of smaller, more efficient cores designed for parallel
processing. Serial portions of the application run on the CPU while parallel portions run on the GPUs. For
processing the large amount of data generated from whole genome sequencing, using both CPUs and GPUs
provides exceptionally fast, efficient processing. Below shows a graphic that compares CPU alone against
using the combination:
Sequence Alignment and Scoring
CPU: 100 core cluster GPU: nVidia Tesla c2075X4
Raw Data: 100Gbase Human Exome (30X coverage)
The use of both CPUs with GPUs allows the same data to be processed in one-
tenth of the time, providing you the processing power of a supercomputer in a
desk-side workstation at a very low cost! The exact configuration of your
server can be optimized to meet your needs and networked to your existing se-
quencers and bioinformatics systems.
Additionally, with the use of “green” technology, these servers use very little
electricity, making them very inexpensive to run, saving you money!

7. XOMICS™
Xomics™ BioInformatics Software
The real power of the Xomics™ solution is in the software. Xomics™ is a Microsoft Windows based applica-
tion designed to allow you to easily process the data generated from all commercial 2nd and 3rd generation
sequencers, using simple point-and-click commands. Your sequencer just needs to be able to output results
in industry standard fastq format. Xomics™ reads in the fastq files generated by the sequencer and then...
Performs sequence alignment
Maps the sequences to a reference genome
Performs sequence quality metrics
Performs SNP calling -including SNPs, insertions, deletions, translocations
Determines Copy Number Variations
Performs and reports genotype to phenotype associations for human genome data
Determines the medical relevance of the SNPs called for human genome data
Determines pharmacogenomic characteristics based on the SNPs determined for human genomes
Determines the phylogeny of the human genome sequenced
Allows for comparison of one or more sample sets
Plus much more!
So, out of the box, Xomics™ provides a complete set of features to meet most genome analysis needs, especially
for human genome sequence data.
Xomics™ software can also be further customized to meet your specific needs. You can customize Xomics™ to:
Directly interface with your sequencing platform, laboratory information system or other bioinformatics sys-
tem.
Produce reports that contain the information you and your clients require in the format you prefer.
To perform the special data processing you require for your research on your specific genome whether it be
plant or animal!
Any need you have, Xomics™ is flexible enough to help.

8. XOMICS™
Easy and Intuitive User Interface
Xomics™ is designed from the beginning to be intuitive and easy to use.
From the main screen, simply drag your sequence files to the
queue and your data is automatically processed. The time re-
quired for the system to process your data depends on the hard-
ware configuration selected. For a human exome, data process-
ing can be finished in as fast as a few minutes!
Once processing is complete, simply click on the “Analyzed
Results and Comparison” tab to review your results!
Sequence Alignment, Mapping and Quality Metrics
After you’ve selected your file, Xomics™ maps the base calls from your sequencing run to the reference
genome you’ve selected.
It determines for you the quality of each read from the sequence
you’ve provide and outputs the quality statistics for each read (i.e.
Q score). It also provides you data to show the total reads, mappa-
ble reads, depth of coverage used for each read, plus a lot of addi-
tional quality information to assure you that the reports you gener-
ate are valid and reliable!
Sequence Alignment, Mapping and Quality Metrics
Xomics™ provides you detailed information on all Genetic Variations found against the reference genome in
your genome.
Xomics™ provides complete reporting on the location
and type of variation; SNP, insertion, deletion, translo-
cation, transversion, insertion/deletion lengths, etc. It
also provides quality information on the variations
called.
Additionally, you can not only compare your sample to
a reference genome for variation calling, you can com-
pare one sample to other samples, for example normal
tissue to diseased tissue, or drought resistant grain to
non-drought resistant, to determine somatic versus he-
reditary mutations or quickly identify the genotype you are looking for. This feature will help you understand
the variations that are relevant to the disease or phenotypes you are researching.

9. XOMICS™
Genotype/Phenotype Association with Medical Relevance
Xomics™ provides data evaluation tools that are color-coded to allow you to quickly pick out the data
that is relevant. Red indicates high risk, yellow
inidicates caution and blue means low risk. When it
is relevant, Xomics™ provides you extensive infor-
mation on why the mutation is relevant including
disease predisposition and probability. It even pro-
vides you the PubMed link to reference so that you
can easily access additional details.
With Xomics™ detailed annotation tools, you can
quickly scan through an exome or a whole genome
to get the information that’s important to you and
your client. Additionally, all of the annotations are
provided in the included reporting package. Or, we
can customize a report that meets your specific re-
quirements.
All the advanced information you need from your genome sequence, at your fingertips!
Ancestry and Phylogeny Information
With Xomics™ you can even trace the origin of your genome or exome. Xomics ™ provides you tools to
see the racial admixture of your sample as
well as follow the geographical origin of
your genome from the beginning to pre-
sent. This is not only a useful feature, but
fun too!
Xomics™ is designed to provide you with
all of the information you or your custom-
ers will ever need from the genome ana-
lyzed and make the discovery easy.
