lncRNAs are the hidden gems of the genome, and bioinformatics is the key to unearthing their full potential. As research progresses, lncRNAs could pave the way for novel diagnostics, targeted therapies, and personalized medicine, revolutionizing...

GABi Research The major researching fields defined as the GABi scope are described next: Sequence Analysis Protein Structure Prediction Comparative Genomics Functional Analysis of Residues on Protein Families Gene/Protein...

NCBI Genome Workbench updates with important bugs fixed.

The IITM-Tokyo Tech Joint Symposium is a biannual international symposium held in Indian Institute of Technology Madras (IITM), India in collaboration with Tokyo Institute of Technology (Tokyo-Tech), Japan.

https://dfast.nig.ac.jp/ - We developed a prokaryotic genome annotation pipeline, DFAST, that also supports genome submission to public sequence databases. DFAST was originally started as an on-line annotation server, and to date, over 7,000 jobs have been processed since its...

sanger-pathogens.github.io - A tool to circularize genome assemblies. The algorithm and benchmarks are described in the Genome Biology manuscript. Citation: "Circlator: automated circularization of genome assemblies using long sequencing reads", Hunt et al, Genome Biology...

github.com - A comparative genome scaffolding tool based on MUMmer mScaffolder scaffolds a genome using an existing high quality genome as the reference. It aligns the two genomes using nucmer utility from MUMmer and then orders and orients the contigs of the...

FYI, I've found it useful to use MUMmer to extract the specific changes that Racon makes, so I can evaluate them individually: minimap -t 24 assembly.fasta long_reads.fastq.gz | racon -t 24 long_reads.fastq.gz - assembly.fasta...

Lab focus is to elucidate fundamental principles, new mechanisms, machineries and emergent properties that are involved in maintaining the genome and gene expression programmes for improvements in lifelong health and well-being for all. More at...

github.com - The goal of the Shasta long read assembler is to rapidly produce accurate assembled sequence using as input DNA reads generated by Oxford Nanopore flow cells. Computational methods used by the Shasta assembler include: Using...
