  • RIbopicker optimum parameters?

    Hi all, I'm using Ribopicker to remove rRNA sequences from RNA-Seq data but so far the amount of sequences being identified as rRNA seems to be very low (considering that >90% of the RNA is supposed to be rRNA) even in samples which haven't received any sort of treatment to reduce the rRNA content before cDNA library creation and sequencing. The parameters which I've used so far are -c (Alignment coverage threshold in percent. ) 50 -i (Alignment identity threshold in percent. )70 and -l (Alignment length threshold in percentage) 30. FYI The samples I'm looking at contain both human and bacterial rRNA. Any help would be appreciated.

    Choosing Between NGS and qPCR
    by seqadmin



    Next-generation sequencing (NGS) and quantitative polymerase chain reaction (qPCR) are essential techniques for investigating the genome, transcriptome, and epigenome. In many cases, choosing the appropriate technique is straightforward, but in others, it can be more challenging to determine the most effective option. A simple distinction is that smaller, more focused projects are typically better suited for qPCR, while larger, more complex datasets benefit from NGS. However,...

    Non-Coding RNA Research and Technologies
    by seqadmin




    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.
