A genome about 6M has about 340 solexa contigs. I'd like to predict genes of each contig with the Glimmer. I don't know to do it from reference genome as training data or if i can use the long-orf to get training data from each contig. I wander if anyone do the same job and how i should do.

Yes, it is possible to do it using the long-orfs program, but I often juct go to NCBI and retrieve genes from their taxonomy browser of a closely related strain or species and use that to do my training. Be sure to use the -r flag when using build-icm. In my experience it helps a lot. -
Yes, glimmer with the training data is perfect. However, the contigs are parts of the genome. The training data maybe not suitable for the contig. Or I should do the training for every contig?

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...Today, 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
