I was thinking of using OrthoMCL to cluster RNA sequences. Does anybody know whether it is OK? Thanks!

As far as I know, orthoMCL uses a set of protein sequences as input. So orthoMCL will not work with RNA (cDNA) sequences directly (but would after translating them into protein sequences).
In any case, homology/orthology assessment is much more powerful for protein sequences than for DNA sequences.

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...-

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...-
