Hi,
Does anybody know some tool to correct genome annotations?
Thanks in advance!

It depends on what you want to do, are you preparing a genome submission yourself, or want to submit changes to an NCBI annotated genome? Or just clean up your own copy for internal use?Scott Monsma

We want to clean up the annotation. Some genes are shown as more than one due to frameshifts generating stop codons. Frameshift seem to occur because homopolimersComment

Are the frameshifts just due to sequence errors? Or actually occur biologically?
NCBI's submission tools might be able to help you find the annotations that have the problem, but they're a bit of a pain to work with. You would need to convert your annotations list to their 5 column table format, and then use tbl2asn to validate the features listed in the table.Scott Monsma

CRISPR/Cas9 sparked the gene editing revolution for both research and therapeutics.1 But this system still showed severe issues that limited its applications. The most prominent were the heavy reliance on PAM sequences, delivery limitations, double-stranded breaks that prompt unintended edits and cell death, and editing inefficiency (both in targeting and in knock-in reliability).
Despite this, “CRISPR helped turn genome editing from a specialized technique into...07-31-2026, 11:01 AM -
Proteomics platforms are evolving rapidly, with advances in mass spectrometry and affinity-based approaches expanding what researchers can detect and at what scale. As the field moves toward deeper proteome coverage and clinical applications, scientists face an increasingly complex landscape of tools. This article will explore how researchers are navigating these choices to find the right platform for their work.
The systematic characterization of the human proteome has...07-20-2026, 11:48 AM -
Genomics studies in neuroscience face a special challenge due to the brain’s complexity and scarcity of samples. Mapping changes in cell type and state using conventional next-generation sequencing methods remains challenging. Advances in technologies like single-cell sequencing, spatial transcriptomics, and long-read sequencing have opened the door to deeper studies of the brain and diseases like Alzheimer’s, amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS), and schizophrenia.
