	<title><![CDATA[BBSplit: Read Binning Tool for Metagenomes and Contaminated Libraries]]></title>
	<description><![CDATA[<p>BBSplit internally uses BBMap to map reads to multiple genomes at once, and determine which genome they match best. This is different than with ordinary mapping. If a genome (say, human) contains an exact repeat somewhere, reads mapping to it will be mapped ambiguously. But if you want to determine whether reads are mouse or human, it does not matter whether they map ambiguously within human, only whether they are ambiguous between human and mouse. BBSplit tracks this additional ambiguity information and decides how to use it based on the &ldquo;ambig2&rdquo; flag. The normal use of BBSplit is like Seal, either quantifying how many reads go to each reference, or splitting the reads into multiple output files, one per reference. BBSplit can only be run using references indexed with BBSplit, as they contain additional information regarding which sequences came from which reference file.</p><p><span>BBSplit is a tool that bins reads by mapping to multiple references simultaneously, using&nbsp;</span><a href="http://seqanswers.com/forums/showthread.php?t=41057" target="_blank">BBMap</a><span>. The reads go to the bin of the reference they map to best. There are also disambiguation options, such that reads that map to multiple references can be binned with all of them, none of them, one of them, or put in a special "ambiguous" file for each of them. Paired reads will always be kept together.</span><br /><br /><span>For example, if you had a library of something that was contaminated with e.coli and salmonella, you could do this:</span><br /><br /><strong>bbsplit.sh in=reads.fq ref=ecoli.fa,salmonella.fa basename=out_%.fq outu=clean.fq int=t</strong><br /><br /><span>This will produce 3 output files:</span><br /><strong>out_ecoli.fq</strong><span>&nbsp;(ecoli reads)</span><br /><strong>out_salmonella.fq</strong><span>&nbsp;(salmonella reads)</span><br /><strong>clean.fq</strong><span>&nbsp;(unmapped reads)</span><br /><br /><span>In this case, "int=t" means that the input file is paired and interleaved. For single-end reads you would leave that out. For paired reads in 2 files, you would do this:</span><br /><strong>bbsplit.sh in1=reads1.fq in2=reads2.fq ref=ecoli.fa,salmonella.fa basename=out_%.fq outu1=clean1.fq outu2=clean2.fq</strong></p><p><strong><span>BBSplit is available here:</span><br /><a href="https://sourceforge.net/projects/bbmap/" target="_blank">https://sourceforge.net/projects/bbmap/</a></strong></p><p><span>The sensitivity can be raised to be equivalent to BBMap with these flags: "minratio=0.56 minhits=1 maxindel=16000"</span></p>]]></description>

  <title><![CDATA[Jarvis’ laboratory]]></title>
  <description><![CDATA[
<p>Dr. Jarvis’ laboratory studies the neurobiology of vocal communication. We want to know how the brain generates, perceives, and learns behavior. We use vocal communication as a model behavior. Emphasis is placed on the molecular pathways involved in the perception and production of learned vocalizations. We use an integrative approach that combines behavioral, anatomical, electrophysiological, and molecular biological techniques. The main animal model used is songbirds, one of the few vertebrate groups that evolved the ability to learn vocalizations. The overall goal of the research is to advance knowledge of the neural mechanisms for vocal learning and basic mechanisms of brain function.</p>

	<title><![CDATA[Find certain files/documents in Linux OS]]></title>
	<description><![CDATA[<p>As bioinformatician I know the fact that we usually handle the large dataset and lost in the huge numbers of files and folders. In order to search the missing file a strong search command is required. The Linux Find Command is one of the most important and much used command in Linux sytems. Find command used to search and locate list of files and directories based on conditions you specify for files that match the arguments. Find can be used in variety of conditions like you can find files by permissions, users, groups, file type, date, size and other possible criteria.<br /><br />Through this article we are sharing our day-to-day Linux find command experience and its usage in the form of examples. In this article we will show you the most used 35 Find Commands examples in Linux.
