    usearch ublast for nucleotide databases

    Hi Everyone,
    I am having some trouble using usearch ublast. I am trying test a database I made using:

    usearch -makeudb_ublast myFasta.fasta -output db.udb -alpha nt

    I used a sequence that should return hits, but usearch ublast says that 0.0% matched. The command I am currently using is:

    usearch -ublast query.fasta -db db.udb -strand both -evalue 1e-5 -alnout output.aln

    I have tried using different combinations of -evalue and -strand and I have double checked that I am using the command correctly.

    Also I made databases with makeblastdb, and tests for those returned the proper results when I used the same sequences as in usearch.

    I am using usearch v8.1.1861

    Can anyone figure out what I am doing wrong?

    The part about this topic feels surprisingly grounded, and the details on the page is the bit that made me slow down. I’d keep <a href="https://kinpict.com/">ai family photo generator</a> bookmarked for later.

    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,...
