        Did you ever figure out how to do this? I'm trying to do the same thing - trying to shove a bam file into an older program that expects either .ace or blastn.

          I can do it via a truely tortuous route, and probably not one you'd want.

          Gap5 can import/export both formats, so it can be used as a conversion tool. But it's slow as it builds its own internal database and it's also a bit of a sledgehammer to crack a nut. Finally I'm really not sure how much testing I did on ace output... gap5 can read its own output, but I'm not really an ACE expert and almost no one is using gap5 in that manner.

          As a one off though it may be worth a shot.

            Beyond CRISPR/Cas9: Understand, Choose, and Use the Right Genome Editing Tool
            by SEQadmin2



            CRISPR/Cas9 sparked the gene editing revolution for both research and therapeutics.1 But this system still showed severe issues that limited its applications. The most prominent were the heavy reliance on PAM sequences, delivery limitations, double-stranded breaks that prompt unintended edits and cell death, and editing inefficiency (both in targeting and in knock-in reliability).

            Despite this, “CRISPR helped turn genome editing from a specialized technique into

            Proteomic Platforms: How to Choose the Right Analytical Strategy to Improve Detection and Clinical Applications
            by SEQadmin2


            Proteomics platforms are evolving rapidly, with advances in mass spectrometry and affinity-based approaches expanding what researchers can detect and at what scale. As the field moves toward deeper proteome coverage and clinical applications, scientists face an increasingly complex landscape of tools. This article will explore how researchers are navigating these choices to find the right platform for their work.

            The systematic characterization of the human proteome has
