The Roth Lab seeks insight into biological systems through genome- and proteome-scale experimentation and analysis.
Current computational interests:
Systematic analysis of genetic epistasis to identify redundant or compensatory systems and to...
A study led by University of Utah scientists is the first to find a genetic cause for the adaptation, a single DNA base pair change that dates back 8,000 years and demonstrate how it contributes to the Tibetans' ability to live in low oxygen...
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...
www.stackage.org - The Bio.SeqLoc modules in seqloc are designed to represent positions and locations (ranges of positions) on sequences, particularly nucleotide sequences. My original motivation for writing these packages was handing the locations of genes in...
ics.hutton.ac.uk - Strudel is our graphical tool for visualizing genetic and physical maps of genomes for comparative purposes. The application aims to let the user examine their data at a variety of different levels of resolution, from entire maps to individual...
github.com - This tutorial includes resources for learning more about PacBio data and bioinformatics analysis, and includes content suitable for both beginners and experts. Below are links to training modules (webinars and PowerPoint presentations) to help you...
sb.nhri.org.tw - A plethora of algorithmic assemblers have been proposed for the de novo assembly of genomes, however, no individual assembler guarantees the optimal assembly for diverse species. Optimizing various parameters in an assembler is often performed in...
www.homolog.us - If genomes were completely random sequences in a statistical sense, 'overlap-consensus-layout' method would have been enough to assemble large genomes from Sanger reads. In contrast, real genomes often have long repetitive regions, and they are hard...
