  • Memory requirements for Rnnotator

    I am considering using Rnnotator as a pre-processor, primarily to cut down on the enormous memory requirements of the Velvet/Oasis assemblers. However, I can find no information about how much memory the Rnnotator pipeline itself requires. Is this a program that can be run on a standard desktop computer (i.e., 4-8 GB RAM), or are more memory intensive computers still required?

    I have searched the literature, the forums, and the manual, but have found no answers.

    Though I don't have my data yet, I am anticipating ~200-400 million 100 bp paired-end reads.

    Does anyone have experience with this software?

    Follow-up

    For those that may be interested, I spoke with one of the creators of Rnnotator, and the short answer is that the pre-processing step does require large amounts of memory, depending on what options one selects, and thus is impossible to run on a typical desktop PC. It was suggested to me that a rough estimate of memory requirements is 1.5X the size of the file (I'm assuming he was referring to GBs).

      Genetic Variation in Immunogenetics and Antibody Diversity
      by seqadmin



      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,...

      Choosing Between NGS and qPCR
      by seqadmin



      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,...
