    Help for analysis

    Hello,
    I am a beginner on genomic analysis. I have a strain of acinetobacter xdr (resistant to colistin by a phenotypic test) and then I realized a complete genome sequencing followed by a Novo assembly and when I used the databases Resfinder and Caard I do not find any known gene for resistance to colistin. Can you help me with a solution to detect a colistin resistant gene. Thank you.

      Thank you Bkowski. It can be used just for identification, annotation and analysis of secondary metabolite biosynthesis gene clusters in bacterial and fungal genomes. But me I want to detect the names of the resistance genes in the whole genome bacterial

        I like Prokka for a fast, reasonably good general annotation of a new genome:

          Advanced Sequencing Platforms Tackle Neuroscience’s Toughest Genomics Problems
          by SEQadmin2



          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.

          Cancer Drug Resistance: The Lingering Barrier to Rising Survival
          by SEQadmin2



          Cancer survival rates have significantly increased in the last few decades in the United States, reaching a combined 70% 5-year survival rate by 2021. Behind this number, there are years of research to find new therapies, drug targets, and early detection methods. But there is one core challenge that keeps slowing down these advances, and it’s about drug resistance.

          There is no single reason why many patients don’t respond to treatment as expected. Cancer is...

          Love this - good data definitely starts from good input, and poor input can only give relatively poor data. I particularly like the mention of Nanodrop/absorbance based methods for quantification. It's such a toss up if you'll get an accurate reading or what amounts to a randomly generated number, and a lot of library/sequencing related issues can be traced back to poor quant.
