Hi ak352,
Thanks for your prompt response! I will take a try.

construct DNA sequence based on variation and human reference
The 1000 genome project provides us information about "variation" of thousands people's DNA sequence against the human reference DNA sequence. The variation is stored in VCF file
format. Basically, for each person in that project, we can get his/her DNA variation information from the VCF file, for example, the type of variation (e.g Insertion/deletion and SNP ) and the position of the variation relative to the reference. The reference is in FASTA format. By combining variation information of one person from the VCF file and the human reference in FASTA file, I want to construct the DNA sequence for that person.
My question is: Does it already exist some tools can perform the task pretty well,or I have to write the scripts by myself?

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
