    Question: Finding repeats in proteins

    Help!

    I am looking for a software (such as Ssrtool or Tandem Repeats Finder) to help me spot motifs in my multiple (thousands) proteins, e.g.:

    Code:
    >seq1
    nnnnnnindcndnnindcndnnindcndnnindcndnninycndnnindcndnnindcnd
    nnindcndnninycndnnindcndnninycndnnindcndnnindcndnninycndnnnn
    yyyyyncn
    I tried searching for existing methods of analyzing such data, but I failed (all the stuff I found was for ACGT data). K-mer analysis method would not be a particularly good one because my data is highly repetitive. I also tried to use UGENE and its built-in Smith-Waterman Search plugin, but either it did not work with just one set of data and comparing it to itself, or I did something horribly wrong.

    Would you happen to be able to help me find a method or software that would work with such data format? I am happy to answer any follow-up questions.

    Nine Things a Sample Prep Scientist Thinks About Before Sequencing
    by SEQadmin2


    I’m not a sequencing expert. I’m a purification scientist who uses NGS to evaluate workflows my group develops. With this perspective, we think about the sample first and the NGS workflow second. The sequencer is an exceptionally honest reporter, but it can only report on what you give it, so whether you get clean, interpretable data from an NGS workflow is largely determined before you begin.


    Here are nine questions we think about, in roughly the order they matter, before...

    From Collection to Sequencing: Why Sample Preparation and Preservation Define Sequencing Data
    by SEQadmin2


    Data variability is still an issue in sequencing technologies despite the advances in reproducibility and accuracy of these platforms. But the problem does not originate in the sequencing itself, but in the previous steps, before the sample reaches the sequencer.


    The first step is collection, followed by preservation and sample preparation for analysis. Most scientists overlook those steps, but not being careful might just be skewing the experiment’s results.
