These are the individual processes that are used by cuffdiff. For example if you have a hyper-threaded core-i3, use -p 4. It uses as much CPU power as possible. So it shortens the analysis time. If you have a 4-core CPU, you are better off using -p 8. It depends on how many thread your processor can handle. -
Cuffdiff thread option
Can anyone explain to me the following option in CuffDiff:
-p/--num-threads <int>
Use this many threads to align reads. The default is 1.
What are threads? Will it take longer to run the analysis if multiple threads are used? Will such an analysis be more accurate?

The field of epigenetics has traditionally concentrated more on DNA and how changes like methylation and phosphorylation of histones impact gene expression and regulation. However, our increased understanding of RNA modifications and their importance in cellular processes has led to a rise in epitranscriptomics research. “Epitranscriptomics brings together the concepts of epigenetics and gene expression,” explained Adrien Leger, PhD, Principal Research Scientist...04-22-2024, 07:01 AM -
Proteins are often described as the workhorses of the cell, and identifying their sequences is key to understanding their role in biological processes and disease. Currently, the most common technique used to determine protein sequences is mass spectrometry. While still a valuable tool, mass spectrometry faces several limitations and requires a highly experienced scientist familiar with the equipment to operate it. Additionally, other proteomic methods, like affinity assays, are constrained...04-04-2024, 04:25 PM
