Hi Everyone,
I would like to map DNA genomic sequences of a non-model insect species on muller elements from drosophila. My goal is to perform a comparative evolutionary analysis by identifying conserved sequences between the two species.
My question is, are muller elements just annotated chromosomes? If not, is there some database that has muller elements that I can directly download from?
Any suggestion will be highly appreciated.

During the COVID-19 pandemic, scientists observed that while some individuals experienced severe illness when infected with SARS-CoV-2, others were barely affected. These disparities left researchers and clinicians wondering what causes the wide variations in response to viral infections and what role genetics plays.

The first FDA-approved CRISPR-based therapy marked the transition of therapeutic gene editing from a dream to reality1. CRISPR technologies have streamlined gene editing, and CRISPR screens have become an important approach for identifying genes involved in disease processes2. This technique introduces targeted mutations across numerous genes, enabling large-scale identification of gene functions, interactions, and pathways3. Identifying the full range...08-27-2024, 04:44 AM
