Opera (Optimal Paired-End Read Assembler) is a sequence assembly program (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sequence_assembly). It uses information from paired-end or long reads to optimally order and orient contigs assembled from shotgun-sequencing reads.

An updated version called OPERA-LG has been re-engineered with features for the assembly of large and complex genomes.
