    Script for counting transcripts in RNA-Seq datasets with random n-mers in the adapter

    This will only serve a small niche of people doing RNA-seq, but figured I'd post it here anyway.

    I wrote a script that essentially implements the counting described here:



    If you have an n-mer of random nucleotides at the end of your RNA-seq adapter, you can use that n-mer to count the number of molecules of RNA. Basically, if you have.

    This script takes a FASTQ file and collapses it based on the barcode. For example, if you have the reads

    GAGAGAGAGGGGGGGGGG
    GAGAGAGAGGGGGGGGGG
    CACACACAGGGGGGGGGG

    and the barcode is the first 8 nucleotides, it gets collapsed down to

    GGGGGGGGGG
    GGGGGGGGGG

    since it is likely that the first two barcodes arose from PCRing the same molecule.

    GitHub is where people build software. More than 150 million people use GitHub to discover, fork, and contribute to over 420 million projects.


    Requires: Python 2.7, numpy, and biopython.

    Best,
    David

    New Genomics Tools and Methods Shared at AGBT 2025
    by seqadmin


    This year’s Advances in Genome Biology and Technology (AGBT) General Meeting commemorated the 25th anniversary of the event at its original venue on Marco Island, Florida. While this year’s event didn’t include high-profile musical performances, the industry announcements and cutting-edge research still drew the attention of leading scientists.

    The Headliner
    The biggest announcement was Roche stepping back into the sequencing platform market. In the years since...

    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...
