I need a tool to analyze the reference sequence, especially about the repeats in it.
Is MUMmer enough?
Thank you for your help!

If by "analyze" you mean "find" then I would recommend TRF by Gary Benson's lab. If by "analyze" you mean "infer alleles from nextgen data" then the answer is more complicated. -
But it seems that TRF only gives me the tandem repeats.Originally posted by genericforms View Post
I need the information about the sparsed repeats, too.
Thank you!Comment

So for the most comprehensive list of repetitive regions I would go for RepeatMasker. Fortunately UCSC hosts RepeatMasker runs so depending on the reference genome you might not even have to run anything.Originally posted by ufwsse View PostComment

NGS has revolutionized clinical microbiology by offering new ways to identify and surveil pathogens without prior knowledge of the target. One popular approach is 16S rRNA and ITS amplicon sequencing, which targets specific microbial markers. But studies are increasingly incorporating shotgun metagenomics, a technique that sequences all DNA from a sample without targeting specific microbial markers. This approach allows more detailed taxonomic classification, detection...10-30-2026, 06:46 AM -
Tumors contain complex mixtures of cell populations that evolve in response to treatment and host-specific factors. Tissue biopsies provide only static snapshots of a tumor’s state. But what if we could follow that evolution over time using a minimally invasive technique?
Liquid biopsies can detect tumor-derived material circulating in the bloodstream, providing a way to study treatment response, detect emerging resistance, and discover new biomarkers. Circulating...10-14-2026, 09:55 AM
