    SOAPdeNovo, get the contigs

    Hello all,
    I am writing this message because I will need help with SOAPDeNovo. Indeed, I made an assembly of Novo with this tool and I want to recover the final contigs. I'm outputting two files. The first file in .contig corresponding to contig sequences without using mate pair information . The second file is in .ScafSeq containing scaffold sequences.
    On the SOAP website , it is specified that the final contigs can be extracted by decomposing the scaffold sequences at the level of the gap regions.
    I would like to know how to achieve this decomposition in order to get the contigs?
    Hoping that you could help me I wish you a great day.
    Cordially
    (Sorry for my bad level in english)

    Why not use the scaffolds ? These are the final contigs organised into scaffolds by using the supplied probably mate pair info. This is what I have always used.

    If you still want the contigs, maybe just break the scaffolds at long N stretches ?

    If its an illumina assembly, it is likely to be pretty awful. Long reads are the way to go these days as I'm sure you know.

      Hello, I want to thank you for your answer.
      I wanted to recover contigs because I want to scaffolding from two files containing separate contigs.
      Thank you very much for your response and your help

        Multiomic Liquid Biopsy: What DNA/RNA Panels Reveal That DNA Alone Can’t
        by SEQadmin2



        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

        New Genomics Technologies Take Aim at Long-Standing Limits
        by SEQadmin2


        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
