how to align the contigs to the reference genome
Hi all,
I am trying to do the de-novo assembly for my RNAseq dataset. First, I want to compare the accuracy of different assembly tools.
Hence, I select one RNAseq data which already a reference genome.
And we have assembly many different transcripts/contigs.
Now, I want to check where these contigs coming from the chromosome and how many contigs can be aligned to the chromosome.
For this questions, can anyone give me some suggestions about which tools is applicable?
Because the length for the contigs/transcipts is much longer than the original reads, how any mismatch I should set for the alignment?
Thanks!

Non-coding RNAs (ncRNAs) do not code for proteins but play important roles in numerous cellular processes including gene silencing, developmental pathways, and more. There are numerous types including microRNA (miRNA), long ncRNA (lncRNA), circular RNA (circRNA), and more. In this article, we discuss innovative ncRNA research and explore recent technological advancements that improve the study of ncRNAs.

Metagenomics has improved the way researchers study microorganisms across diverse environments. Historically, studying microorganisms relied on culturing them in the lab, a method that limits the investigation of many species since most are unculturable1. Metagenomics overcomes these issues by allowing the study of microorganisms regardless of their ability to be cultured or the environments they inhabit. Over time, the field has evolved, especially with the advent...09-23-2024, 06:35 AM
