Script to break scaffolds?
Does anybody have or know where to find (URL?) a script to split/ break scaffolds into single contigs. Some programs do not like those Ns.
Thanks,

Depending on the program used to perform the assembly, you should be able to find (ask for) files with just the contigs (and AGP-like files describing the placement of contigs in the scaffolds). -
Hi Flxlex,
In some cases I have been able to contact the group assembling the genome but sometimes is not so easy with other genomes. They come in two flavors either scaffolded chromosomes or dowload 700 contigs one by one. I cannot be the first one that is looking for an easy way to break those scaffolds into contigs. It is like the X-files I know it is out there I just have not found it ... yet.
Cheers!

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...10-14-2026, 09:55 AM -
Researchers using sequencing and genomics tools often have to make trade-offs. They can choose between speed or scale, short reads or long-range information, or targeted panels or a view of the whole transcriptome. New technologies that have been released this year are built to address those tough choices.
We asked six companies the same four questions to learn about their latest products. The new technologies bring a lot to the table, including rethinking sequencing...
