<p>The Roth Lab seeks insight into biological systems through genome- and proteome-scale experimentation and analysis.</p>

<p>Current computational interests:</p>

<p>Systematic analysis of genetic epistasis to identify redundant or compensatory systems and to reveal order of action in genetic pathways.<br />Using knockout, knockdown, or overexpression, or other perturbation experiments in combinations of genes in S. cerevisiae, C. elegans or mouse.<br />Using genome-scale genotyping of natural polymorphisms in S. cerevisiae and human populations.<br />Alternative splicing and its relationship to protein interaction networks.<br />Integrating large-scale studies including phenotype, genetic epistasis, protein-protein and transcription-regulatory interactions and sequence patterns to quantitatively assign function to genes and guide experimentation.</p>

	<title><![CDATA[Swabs to Genomes: A Comprehensive Workflow]]></title>
	<description><![CDATA[<p>The sequencing, assembly, and basic analysis of microbial genomes, once a painstaking and expensive undertaking, has become almost trivial for research labs with access to standard molecular biology and computational tools. However, there are a wide variety of options available for DNA library preparation and sequencing, and inexperience with bioinformatics can pose a significant barrier to entry for many who may be interested in microbial genomics. The objective of the present study was to design, test, troubleshoot, and publish a simple, comprehensive workflow from the collection of an environmental sample (a swab) to a published microbial genome; empowering even a lab or classroom with limited resources and bioinformatics experience to perform it.</p><p>Address of the bookmark: <a href="https://peerj.com/preprints/453.pdf" rel="nofollow">https://peerj.com/preprints/453.pdf</a></p>]]></description>
