    Can I compare RNA-Seq contigs data with genome data

    Hi,

    I obtained an old data of RNA-Seq contigs but without raw reads. And my boss wants me to find if those contigs can be comparable with the relative reference genome (which is annotated)

    What program or strategy I should use to analyse those contigs? Maybe , I could better annotate them?

    Thanks in advance!

    You could use BLAT to align the RNA-Seq contigs to the reference genome.

        Blat, provided both species are highly related (>95%). Otherwise, blast to give you an idea of your species in relation to the sequenced species. If you use blast, you will get multiple alignments to the same gene in the genome because blast can't extend alignments over the introns.

          Pathogen Surveillance with Advanced Genomic Tools
          by seqadmin




          The COVID-19 pandemic highlighted the need for proactive pathogen surveillance systems. As ongoing threats like avian influenza and newly emerging infections continue to pose risks, researchers are working to improve how quickly and accurately pathogens can be identified and tracked. In a recent SEQanswers webinar, two experts discussed how next-generation sequencing (NGS) and machine learning are shaping efforts to monitor viral variation and trace the origins of infectious...

          Investigating the Gut Microbiome Through Diet and Spatial Biology
          by seqadmin




          The human gut contains trillions of microorganisms that impact digestion, immune functions, and overall health1. Despite major breakthroughs, we’re only beginning to understand the full extent of the microbiome’s influence on health and disease. Advances in next-generation sequencing and spatial biology have opened new windows into this complex environment, yet many questions remain. This article highlights two recent studies exploring how diet influences microbial...
