If you start with the release10_32_unaligned.fa FASTA format file you will have to create a blast database from it. You can't directly use it for blastn. Instructions on how to create a blastable database from a fasta (makeblastdb) file are available at the blast command line help page: http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/books/NBK1763/Originally posted by SDPA_Pet View Post
release10_32_unaligned.gb appears to have the same sequences in GenBank format.Leave a comment:

RDP database
Can I download RDP database from NCBI? There are some database on NCBI ftp (e.g.16SMicrobial.tar.gz, refseq_rna.00.tar.gz). Are these NCBI own database or they are from other sources (just in NCBI format)
I try to download RDP database from here (http://rdp.cme.msu.edu/misc/resources.jsp)
However, after I download it, I am not sure which format (or database) I should use.
I want to use BLASTn to blast my sequences data and my data are not aligned. Should I use Unaligned database from the website?
Also, should I use "Genbank, unaligned". What does Genebank mean on the website? Does it mean RDP_10_32 database in genebank format? or It means the NCBI rRNA database. Can I use it directly for blastn command? or I need to convert the database to NCBI request database.
Best regards,
Ben

During the COVID-19 pandemic, scientists observed that while some individuals experienced severe illness when infected with SARS-CoV-2, others were barely affected. These disparities left researchers and clinicians wondering what causes the wide variations in response to viral infections and what role genetics plays.

The first FDA-approved CRISPR-based therapy marked the transition of therapeutic gene editing from a dream to reality1. CRISPR technologies have streamlined gene editing, and CRISPR screens have become an important approach for identifying genes involved in disease processes2. This technique introduces targeted mutations across numerous genes, enabling large-scale identification of gene functions, interactions, and pathways3. Identifying the full range...08-27-2024, 04:44 AM
