Hi, totally new to this area, I've got some 454 16S data run through QIIME by another group, for diversity profiling. Data has been demultiplexed + assigned to taxomomic identities using GreenGenes 4/2/2011. I am installing QIIME on my computer so that I can get a better feel for how it works, but I wondered if anyone could point me in the direction of other tools I can use with this data in the meantime. Mainly I'd like to give some identity to all the bacteria that currently fall under "Other" and to produce some nice plots. Thanks for any help.

The field of immunogenetics explores how genetic variations influence immune responses and susceptibility to disease. In a recent SEQanswers webinar, Oscar Rodriguez, Ph.D., Postdoctoral Researcher at the University of Louisville, and Ruben Martínez Barricarte, Ph.D., Assistant Professor of Medicine at Vanderbilt University, shared recent advancements in immunogenetics. This article discusses their research on genetic variation in antibody loci, antibody production processes,...11-06-2024, 07:24 PM -
Next-generation sequencing (NGS) and quantitative polymerase chain reaction (qPCR) are essential techniques for investigating the genome, transcriptome, and epigenome. In many cases, choosing the appropriate technique is straightforward, but in others, it can be more challenging to determine the most effective option. A simple distinction is that smaller, more focused projects are typically better suited for qPCR, while larger, more complex datasets benefit from NGS. However,...10-18-2024, 07:11 AM
