    Old notation for variation

    Hi, all!

    I am confused with the following notations for SNPs:
    E-selectin +G98T, +A561C
    IL-10 gene promoter -592A
    TNF-alpha promoter -857CC
    TIM3 GT + TT
    IL-1ß-2023 C*
    TNF-alpha C857T
    MBL codon 52 'CC' and 'CT'
    GSTP1 val/val
    CXCL10 G-201A
    IL-18 promoter -607A/A

    These are probably old notations for SNPs used without official definition.
    I can't figure out how I can locate those variations in the reference sequence.

    That syntax looks a bit strange!

    E-selectin +G98T, +A561C

    Probably means a G was changed to a T at position 98 (nucleotide), and an A=>C at position 561 in the E-selectin gene. The problem is, you need to know what build and version of the annotation was used!

    IL-10 gene promoter -592A
    Negative coordinate relative to start of CDS makes some sense, as it is in a promoter.

    The rest just get more bizarre!

      16S/ITS Profiling vs. Shotgun Metagenomics: What Changes in Your Workflow?
      by SEQadmin2





      NGS has revolutionized clinical microbiology by offering new ways to identify and surveil pathogens without prior knowledge of the target. One popular approach is 16S rRNA and ITS amplicon sequencing, which targets specific microbial markers. But studies are increasingly incorporating shotgun metagenomics, a technique that sequences all DNA from a sample without targeting specific microbial markers. This approach allows more detailed taxonomic classification,...

      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
