UC Davis's Bart Weimer describes foodborne pathogens and their proclivity for rapid genome rearrangement. The 100K Pathogen Genome Project he leads is using PacBio long-read sequencing to close genomes and analyze methylation; Weimer reports that...
The genetic code consists of 64 triplets of nucleotides. These triplets are called codons.With three exceptions, each codon encodes for one of the 20 amino acids used in the synthesis of proteins. That produces some redundancy in the code: most of...
Applications are invited along with complete bio-data and attested copies of certificates of qualifications, experience etc. for the one post of

ufmg-simba.sourceforge.net - SIMBA, SImple Manager for Bacterial Assemblies, is a Web interface for managing assembly projects of bacterial genomes. SIMBA was created to assist bioinformaticians to assemble bacterial genomes sequenced with NextGeneration Sequencing (NGS)...
www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov - We describe a new algorithm, meraculous, for whole genome assembly of deep paired-end short reads, and apply it to the assembly of a dataset of paired 75-bp Illumina reads derived from the 15.4 megabase genome of the haploid yeast Pichia...
github.com - Funannotate is a genome prediction, annotation, and comparison software package. It was originally written to annotate fungal genomes (small eukaryotes ~ 30 Mb genomes), but has evolved over time to accomodate larger genomes. The impetus for this...
The central goal of the Earth BioGenome Project is to understand the evolution and organization of life on our planet by sequencing and functionally annotating the genomes of 1.5 million known species of eukaryotes
ArrayGen is offering an Internship Program for Post graduate Bioinformatics / Biotechnology / MBA / MCA students and professionals. ArrayGen Technologies provide an excellent opportunity to gain research experience and explore if a scientific career...
github.com - This code is used to scaffold your assemblies using Hi-C data. This version implements some improvements in the original SALSA algorithm. If you want to use the old version, it can be found in the old_salsa branch.
To use the latest version,...
http://ggdc.dsmz.de/ - The GGDC web service reports digital DDH for a universal and accurate delineation of prokaryotic (sub-)species without inheriting the pitfalls of classic DDH, and also calculates differences in genomic G+C...
