    MEGAN errors with blastx reults

    Hi All,

    I can't find any documentation regarding this. Please Help!

    When I "Import From BLAST..." in MEGAN 4.64.2 on Linux 10.04 and specify a single blastx output file (e.g. 4 GB) in .txt format, and its corresponding single reads file (e.g. 50 MB) in .fna, and try to save it as temp.rma it successfully processes the reads file (progress bar goes to completion) then a new window/bar comes up mentioning the blast results and before the progress bar has a chance to move the whole program closes.

    I'm left with temp.rma (2 MB) and temp.tmp0 (200 kb), and when I try to open the .rma from within MEGAN I get "Execute failed: RMA2 file corrupt? Expected: -1, got: -109"

    I have 5 other similarly sized pairs of files, and this happens with all of them. The system has 8 cores and 24 GB RAM. I've used MEGAN before, importing some of these exact same files and performing analyses, without problems. I don't know what's changed since then, except that we've added more RAM, and a couple months of regular system updates.

    Please Help!

    Multiomic Liquid Biopsy: What DNA/RNA Panels Reveal That DNA Alone Can’t
    by SEQadmin2



    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

    New Genomics Technologies Take Aim at Long-Standing Limits
    by SEQadmin2


    Researchers using sequencing and genomics tools often have to make trade-offs. They can choose between speed or scale, short reads or long-range information, or targeted panels or a view of the whole transcriptome. New technologies that have been released this year are built to address those tough choices.

    We asked six companies the same four questions to learn about their latest products. The new technologies bring a lot to the table, including rethinking sequencing
