Hello Laura
I see there were no replies to your post.
Have you managed to calculate dn/ds genome-wide?
I have bam as well as vcf files and I am interested with the average dN/dS value. Any tips?
Thanks

dn/ds genome-wide
Hi all,
I have assembled a de novo transcriptome for my organism of interest (in this case, the eastern oyster). The genome of a related species was recently released (pacific oyster). I have aligned my representative transcripts to the genome of the related species. I would now like to calculate dn/ds between the two species for each of the aligned transcripts. Right now, the only idea I have for how to do this is to take each individual transcript, realign it with the appropriate scaffold from the related genome, and analyze it with DnaSP or PAML.
Does anyone know of a way to take the full alignment in SAM or BAM and calculate dn/ds either for the entire genome or for each exon/transcript?
Thanks for your thoughts!

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
