I have a low complexity archaeal enrichment for which I want a quick (and cheap) look inside (metabolic potential) and importantly, to identity its archaeal members based on 16S (e.g.) its members. Which would you recommend: 454 with 700 nt reads, or Illumina, 2x100 reads. I heard that Illumina is better, but i this case I'm not sure.

What domain are you trying to sequence. For low cost and higher throughput go with a 2x100 MiSeq run (2x300 would even be better).

I'm not trying to sequence only the 16S rRNA, but rather the whole DNA and I hope to get 16S rRNA of sufficient length (via assembly?) to identify the microbes in there. Do you think that they assembly of Illumina 2x100 will be good enough for that?Originally posted by msheldon View PostComment

I assume by sequencing you want to assemble contigs and search for presence of genes involved in metabolic pathway of interest and also identify archaeal species. 16S region is not divergent enough (at least for bacteria) for correct assembly from short reads. I would prefer MiSeq 2x300 reads over 454 long reads because of accuracy and cost effectiveness.Comment

The introduction of single-cell sequencing has advanced the ability to study cell-to-cell heterogeneity. Its use has improved our understanding of somatic mutations1, cell lineages2, cellular diversity and regulation3, and development in multicellular organisms4. Single-cell sequencing encompasses hundreds of techniques with different approaches to studying the genomes, transcriptomes, epigenomes, and other omics of individual cells. The analysis of single-cell sequencing data i

Single-cell sequencing is a technique used to investigate the genome, transcriptome, epigenome, and other omics of individual cells using high-throughput sequencing. This technology has provided many scientific breakthroughs and continues to be applied across many fields, including microbiology, oncology, immunology, neurobiology, precision medicine, and stem cell research.
The advancement of single-cell sequencing began in 2009 when Tang et al. investigated the single-cell transcriptomes...01-09-2023, 03:10 PM
