	<title><![CDATA[RASTtk : algorithm for building custom annotation pipelines and annotating batches of genomes]]></title>
	<description><![CDATA[<p>The RAST (Rapid Annotation using Subsystem Technology) annotation engine was built in 2008 to annotate bacterial and archaeal genomes. It works by offering a standard software pipeline for identifying genomic features (i.e., protein-encoding genes and RNA) and annotating their functions. Recently, in order to make RAST a more useful research tool and to keep pace with advancements in bioinformatics, it has become desirable to build a version of RAST that is both customizable and extensible. In this paper, we describe the RAST tool kit (RASTtk), a modular version of RAST that enables researchers to build custom annotation pipelines. RASTtk offers a choice of software for identifying and annotating genomic features as well as the ability to add custom features to an annotation job. RASTtk also accommodates the batch submission of genomes and the ability to customize annotation protocols for batch submissions. This is the first major software restructuring of RAST since its inception.</p>

<h4>Calculate how much sequencing you need to hit a target depth of coverage (or vice versa).</h4>
<p><span>Instructions:</span> set the read length/configuration and genome size, then select what you want to calculate.</p>
<p>Written by <a href="http://stephenturner.us/" target="blank">Stephen Turner</a>, based on the <a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/3294162" target="_blank">Lander-Waterman formula</a>, inspired by <a href="http://core-genomics.blogspot.com/2016/05/how-many-reads-to-sequence-genome.html" target="_blank">a similar calculator</a> written by James Hadfield.

	<title><![CDATA[gbtools: Interactive Visualization of Metagenome Bins in R]]></title>
	<description><![CDATA[<p><span>We have developed gbtools, a software package that allows users to visualize metagenomic assemblies by plotting coverage (sequencing depth) and GC values of contigs, and also to annotate the plots with taxonomic information. Different sets of annotations, including taxonomic assignments from conserved marker genes or SSU rRNA genes, can be imported simultaneously; users can choose which annotations to plot. Bins can be manually defined from plots, or be imported from third-party binning tools and overlaid onto plots, such that results from different methods can be compared side-by-side. gbtools reports summary statistics of bins including marker gene completeness, and allows the user to add or subtract bins with each other.&nbsp;</span></p>

	<description><![CDATA[<p>Imagine comparing humans and chimpanzees to discover which genes make us different. You have millions of RNA-sequencing reads&mdash;but there is a catch: the computer may align these reads more easily to one species' genome than the other.</p><p>Suddenly, a technical error can look like a biological difference.</p><p>This is the problem Kenneth A. Barr and Yoav Gilad tackle with CrossFilt, a new computational tool introduced in Genome Biology journal.</p><p>CrossFilt acts like a careful referee. It keeps only sequencing reads that can be reliably compared across species, filtering out reads that could create alignment bias.</p><p>When tested on human, chimpanzee, and rhesus macaque data, CrossFilt reduced false discoveries and produced more reliable cross-species comparisons.</p><p>The message is simple: before asking what makes species different, we need to make sure our methods aren't creating those differences.</p><p>In genomics, sometimes the most important discovery is finding&mdash;and removing&mdash;the bias hiding in the data.</p><p>Read more at&nbsp;https://link.springer.com/article/10.1186/s13059-026-04082-2?</p>]]></description>

<pre><code>sudo cpan App::perlbrew
perlbrew init
</code></pre>
<p>If it is installed with cpan, the perlbrew executable should be installed as&nbsp;<code>/usr/bin/perlbrew</code>&nbsp;or&nbsp;<code>/usr/local/bin/perlbrew</code>. For all users who want to use perlbrew, a prior&nbsp;<code>perlbrew init</code>&nbsp;needs to be executed.</p>
<p>The default perlbrew root directory is&nbsp;<code>~/perl5/perlbrew</code>, which can be changed by setting&nbsp;<code>PERLBREW_ROOT</code>environment variable before the installation and initialization. For more advanced installation process, please read&nbsp;<a href="http://metacpan.org/module/App::perlbrew">the perlbrew document</a>.</p>
