Stay at home if you have coronavirus symptoms

Stay at home if you have either:

• a high temperature – you feel hot to touch on your chest or back
• a new, continuous cough – this means you've started coughing repeatedly

DO NOT TAKE

How to avoid catching and spreading coronavirus (social distancing)

Everyone should do what they can to stop coronavirus spreading.

It is particularly important for people who:

• are 70 or over
• have a long-term condition
• are pregnant
• have a weakened immune system

How does SEX-DETector work?

SEX-DETector does not require prior sequencing of a reference genome: the same sequencing data can be used for the assembly and for the mapping of the reads. A full documentation on the pipeline can be found here.

• we recommend Trinity for the assembly.
• Trinity components should be merged with cap3. Our code to perform the merging is available here.
• We recommend BWA for mapping of the reads.
• When the mapping has been perfomed, the individuals need to be genotyped; SEX-DETector takes files produced by Reads2snp (which is available for download on the PopPhyl website) as input.

Mulan (http://mulan.dcode.org/), a novel method and a network server for comparing multiple draft and finished-quality sequences to identify functional elements conserved over evolutionary time. Mulan brings together several novel algorithms: the TBA multi-aligner program for rapid identification of local sequence conservation, and the multiTF program for detecting evolutionarily conserved transcription factor binding sites in multiple alignments. In addition, Mulan supports two-way communication with the GALA database; alignments of multiple species dynamically generated in GALA can be viewed in Mulan, and conserved transcription factor binding sites identified with Mulan/multiTF can be integrated and overlaid with extensive genome annotation data using GALA.
