    Paired end or not ?

    Hi

    I am very new to sequencing and bioinformatics in general. I have been tasked with de novo sequencing of many short reads of a microbe. I thought I'd start out with Velvet. Just by looking at the input, I am not able to make out if they are paired end reads or not, or what format they are (fasta, eland etc).
    My file looks like this: Many lines of 35-long nucleotides with a number after each (anywhere between 1 and 65 I think these are the number of repeated reads).

    Could someone help me with the input format - is it paired end ? fasta ? What is this ?

    Thanks

    It may be beneficial if you could paste a segment of the file you are looking at. I know for me it helps to see a visual, so I can compare to other files that I have.

        16S/ITS Profiling vs. Shotgun Metagenomics: What Changes in Your Workflow?
        by SEQadmin2




        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...

        Multiomic Liquid Biopsy: What DNA/RNA Panels Reveal That DNA Alone Can’t
        by SEQadmin2



        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
