    Dialign2-2 outputs

    Hi,

    i am actually working with dialign2-2 et i have some problems with my alignments. I make pairwise alignment and i try to compare short DNA sequences (between 10 et 4000 nucleotides).

    When i use dialign i use -n to specify that i work on DNA sequences, but when i look at my output, i obtain better alignments using no option (in this case dialign considers that i work with proteins sequences).

    For example :

    input:
    Code:
    GGCGGGCCTCGCCCCGCGCTGTTCTTTCCTC[COLOR="Red"]C[/COLOR]CCC
    GGCGGGCCTCGCCCCGCGCTGTTCTTCCCAC[COLOR="Red"]T[/COLOR]CCC
    output using dialign2-2 -n file.fa :
    Code:
    GGCGGGCCTCGCCCCGCGCTGTTCTTTCCTC[COLOR="Red"]C[/COLOR]CCC
    GGCGGGCCTCGCCCCGCGCTGTTCTTCCCAC[COLOR="Red"]T[/COLOR]CCC
    and using this : dialign2-2 file.fa :
    Code:
    GGCGGGCCTCGCCCCGCGCTGTTCTTTCCTC[COLOR="Red"]-[/COLOR]CCC
    GGCGGGCCTCGCCCCGCGCTGTTCTTCCCAC[COLOR="Red"]t[/COLOR]CCC
    I have underline differences in red.



    Moreover, in several cases (always using -n), my output sequences are more longer than my input sequences (between 2 and 5 nucleotides). How can i obtain this difference ?

    Thanks

    And sorry for my english

    Resolved, my treshold was too low (T=0 per default)

      Advanced Sequencing Platforms Tackle Neuroscience’s Toughest Genomics Problems
      by SEQadmin2



      Genomics studies in neuroscience face a special challenge due to the brain’s complexity and scarcity of samples. Mapping changes in cell type and state using conventional next-generation sequencing methods remains challenging. Advances in technologies like single-cell sequencing, spatial transcriptomics, and long-read sequencing have opened the door to deeper studies of the brain and diseases like Alzheimer’s, amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS), and schizophrenia.

      Cancer Drug Resistance: The Lingering Barrier to Rising Survival
      by SEQadmin2



      Cancer survival rates have significantly increased in the last few decades in the United States, reaching a combined 70% 5-year survival rate by 2021. Behind this number, there are years of research to find new therapies, drug targets, and early detection methods. But there is one core challenge that keeps slowing down these advances, and it’s about drug resistance.

      There is no single reason why many patients don’t respond to treatment as expected. Cancer is...

      Reply to Nine Things a Sample Prep Scientist Thinks About Before Sequencing
      by GATTACAT
      Love this - good data definitely starts from good input, and poor input can only give relatively poor data. I particularly like the mention of Nanodrop/absorbance based methods for quantification. It's such a toss up if you'll get an accurate reading or what amounts to a randomly generated number, and a lot of library/sequencing related issues can be traced back to poor quant.
