Does anyone know of a good source for understanding the alignment description format of Bowtie's MD tag? I'm trying to work out a parser to give me a simple alignment of reference/read from this information. Thanks!

You can take a look at the source code within SAMtools for creating the MD tag (bam_md.c) or within the PERL SAM module (http://search.cpan.org/~lds/Bio-SamT.../Bio/DB/Sam.pm). Both will show you how to recover the reference sequence using the MD tag and the cigar.Originally posted by mendl7 View Post -

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
